# RFC 977 by Brian Kantor and Phil Lapsley.
# xover, xgtitle, xpath, date methods by Kevan Heydon
# Incompatible changes from the 2.x nntplib:
# - all commands are encoded as UTF-8 data (using the "surrogateescape"
# error handler), except for raw message data (POST, IHAVE)
# - all responses are decoded as UTF-8 data (using the "surrogateescape"
# error handler), except for raw message data (ARTICLE, HEAD, BODY)
# - the `file` argument to various methods is keyword-only
#
# - NNTP.date() returns a datetime object
# - NNTP.newgroups() and NNTP.newnews() take a datetime (or date) object,
# rather than a pair of (date, time) strings.
# - NNTP.newgroups() and NNTP.list() return a list of GroupInfo named tuples
# - NNTP.descriptions() returns a dict mapping group names to descriptions
# - NNTP.xover() returns a list of dicts mapping field names (header or metadata)
# to field values; each dict representing a message overview.
# - NNTP.article(), NNTP.head() and NNTP.body() return a (response, ArticleInfo)
# tuple.
# - the "internal" methods have been marked private (they now start with
# an underscore)
# Other changes from the 2.x/3.1 nntplib:
# - automatic querying of capabilities at connect
# - New method NNTP.getcapabilities()
# - New method NNTP.over()
# - New helper function decode_header()
# - NNTP.post() and NNTP.ihave() accept file objects, bytes-like objects and
# arbitrary iterables yielding lines.
# - An extensive test suite :-)
# TODO:
# - return structured data (GroupInfo etc.) everywhere
# - support HDR
