Also known as: feed, newsfeed
The flow of articles between two servers under an agreement covering which hierarchies move in which direction. Feeds are configured per peer and may be full, meaning everything the sender carries, or filtered down to text-only or a named subset of groups. How many feeds a provider takes, and how reliable each one is, directly determines the completion its subscribers see on busy binary groups.
