Managed to build and install. Had to do the following:

avoid the Ubuntu golang package, install go1.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz from official Go site instead
ignore [go get], it asks for github credentials and whatnot (I guess [git clone] is enough)
copy simplenntp/ into src/github.com/madcowfred/gopoststuff/

Seems to work better than newsmangler. I miss the nzb generation though.

Oh hey, someone actually tried this.

I'll probably start providing binaries once this is in a reasonable release state, Go has pretty good cross-compilation support.
Looks like Go's import does not work quite how I thought re:relative paths, oops. I'll try to get this fixed.

I actually completely forgot about NZB generation.

Of course somebody is using this. I have just made my first usenet upload using GoPostStuff, i just have to download the files now to see if everything is correct.

To be honest the installation was a bit odd. I have use the golang packages for debian sid on my wheezy installation. The go get command asked for my Github credentials but failed to download with them entered correctly. So i followed colmar's suggestions and than building etc. was no problem.

Btw. NZB File support would be great.

Fixed the weirdness with installation (and actually tested it this time).

Awesome tool and faster upload speeds. Will you add the nzb creation like in newsmangler? Thanks.
