Thank you for your reply,

Ok but (I know it may be specific to my self, but I don't think so). In
fact, in my case we define one or severals servers in the settings. A server
can handle a set of connection. This set of connection must be shared
between all NntpTransfer instance. So, if one decide to change the amount of
connections handled by a server through the settings, my
NNTPServerManager(which is a snigleton) need to be notified by the fact that
a server has changed his amount of connection.
So it's why in my case I suggest that the TransferFactory can be also
notified by settings changes. If it is not the case, all the NNTPTransfer
will update the  NNTPServerManager.

I wish you understand my point of view,

Joel
