Hello,

(Sorry for my English.)

I think it would be nice (and quite easy to implement) to add the following functionality to knode:

* you should be able to set how often would you like knode to check for new groups - globally or per newsserver,
I think by default this setting should be set to something about 7 days.

* knode should then check periodically, with the period as set above, for new groups in all/specific newsservers and notice user about new groups detected with an info window with buttons like "ignore" and "get me to the group subscribing windows".

I'm really looking forward to this feature,
Best regards,
Grzegorz
