'''''Leafnode''''' is a store-and-forward [[Network News Transfer Protocol|NNTP]] (or [[Usenet]]) [[proxy server]] designed for small sites with just a few active [[newsgroup]]s, but very easy to set up and maintain, when compared to [[InterNetNews|INN]].  Originally created by [[Arnt Gulbrandsen]]<ref>{{cite web | url=http://leafnode.sourceforge.net/wuerzburg/faq.html#20 | work=Leafnode | last = Krasel | first = Cornelius |  accessdate=2006-08-15 | title=Leafnode FAQ}}</ref> in 1995 while he was working at [[Trolltech]], it is currently maintained by Matthias Andree and Ralf Wildenhues.

The term '''leaf node''' can also be used to describe a node on a [[binary tree]] (or any other sort of tree that has nodes) which has no sub-nodes.
