Sorry but I haven't started work on a newsreader.  At least, not yet.
I still haven't finished my e-mail client that I started years ago and
I really should get back to it soon.

I believe Aaron Pulver started working on a newsreader quite a while
back.  I remember downloading it and trying it out but it had no real
user interface but it did seem to retrieve newsgroup messages okay.

Other than that, I don't know of any other newsreader projects for the
IIgs that have been written or that are in the works at present.
