I think any proposal based on actual NNTP is probably doomed.
I think any proposal that asks the user to use a client that isn’t The Web is doomed (but it looks like you are addressing that in 1.7.)
BUT, I think the notion of redesigning this system around something that is morally just like NNTP is a hugely interesting and not-totally-crazy one; AND even if you completely fail, I think there will be hugely valuable ideas in this sequence for people like me who also think about this kind of thing.

So please write this sequence!
