Hi,

<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ellermann-news-nntp-uri#section-8.2>
proposes the registration of an nntp.uri.arpa NAPTR:

| This section contains the [RFC3405] template for the registration of
| the 'nntp' URI scheme with the Dynamic Delegation Discovery System.
|
| Key:               nntp
| Authority:         RFCXXXX
| Record:
|   nntp IN NAPTR 0 0 "" "" "!^nntp://([^/?#]*@)?([^:/?#]*).*$!\\2!i" .

I hope that's as it should be.  There's a small difference from the
similar existing 'http' and 'ftp' records, noted in the "document
history" of the draft:

| If that record is correct the existing ftp.uri.arpa
| and "http.uri.arpa" records could be updated, apparently they
| don't remove the optional <userinfo> at the moment.

For comparison the current ftp.uri.arpa and http.uri.arpa NAPTRs: 

|    ftp IN NAPTR 0 0 "" "" "!^ftp://([^:/?#]*).*$!\\1!i" .
|   http IN NAPTR 0 0 "" "" "!^http://([^:/?#]*).*$!\\1!i" .
