8.  Duties of Various Agents

   The following section sets out the duties of various agents involved
   in the creation, relaying and serving of Usenet articles. Insofar as
   these duties are described as sequences of steps to be followed, it
   should be understood that it is the effect of these sequences that is
   important, and implementations may use any method that gives rise to
   that same effect.

   In this section, the word "trusted", as applied to the source of some
   article, means that an agent processing that article has verified, by
   some means, the identity of that source (which may be another agent
   or a poster).

        NOTE: In many implementations, a single agent may perform
        various combinations of the injecting, relaying and serving
        functions. Its duties are then the union of the various duties
        concerned.
