Hi all,

It has recently been asked in a French newsgroup the possibility to add 
a link to an external web page for feeds in HTML status.

Examples of innfeed and innd status:
   http://pasdenom.info/usenet/innfeed.status
   http://pasdenom.info/usenet/inn_status.html

That is to say, instead of:

nntp.alphanet.ch
  ip address: 193.72.186.6
     seconds: 1127           duplicates: 0     max allowed cxns: 1
     offered: 142         uw newsgroups: 0          active cxns: 1

having:

nntp.alphanet.ch
<a href="xxxxx">Usenet reports</a>
  ip address: 193.72.186.6
     seconds: 1127           duplicates: 0     max allowed cxns: 1
     offered: 142         uw newsgroups: 0          active cxns: 1



Do you think it worthwhile adding?

Any other idea of improvements to HTML reports?



I would suggest a new "html-comment" parameter in both innfeed.conf and 
incoming.conf, that would just be printed as-is below the name of the 
feed.  This way, anything could be added (text, link...).

No change in text-only status (there's currently no need for a similar 
feature, but if you feel it should be implemented too, please tell).
