[leafnode-list] Leafnode 1.9.50rc1 not fetching articles?

["William Hooper" <whooper@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've noticed a major drop-off in new messages lately with 1.9.50rc1, so I
did a test.  I ran a fetchnews -vvvvv (log posted below) but received no
new articles.  In fact it doesn't even appear to be checking for some
groups.  For example, the one gmane group (there should be two) is checked
on the Earthlink server, but there is nothing about it on the gmane
server.

I then downgraded to 1.9.49rel and it is fetching new articles (still
going as I type this).  Anyone else see this?


Pardon the major length:
