History
In 2007 Bokko.nl published a projected titled php-nzb-generator which stored nntp message headers in a mysql database using PHP's PEAR Net_NNTP library. Around this time the popular Usenet indexing site NZBS.org was born utilizing the Bokko code.

In the spring of 2010, following the closure of the Usenet indexing site Newzbin, a number of software developers from the SABnzbd community decided to write an open source usenet indexing application. The intention being to spawn many new indexes, both public and private, in the same way as the popular open source bittorrent tracker tbsource had enabled people to easily set up their own bitorrent trackers.

The code base started from the php-nzb-generator project, but rapidly evolved into a customizable nzb indexing application, which intended to replicate many of the features from the NZBS.org index.

Project Status
The project is currently in beta.
