I tried a test-merge and one problem I ran into is that the Gnus trunk contains a "newer" version of pgg*.el, which has been abandoned by its author and as I recall was rejected for merging into Emacs. I'd suggest that the proper thing to do (supported by a previous discussion on the Gnus developer list) is first revert the version of pgg in the Gnus trunk to that in the Gnus 5.10 branch, and perhaps wait a while for any bugs to be fixed before merging the Gnus trunk into Emacs. Is there anybody who can do that (revert pgg in the Gnus trunk to the version in the 5.10 branch, and remove any unneeded files like password.el)? I can try to do it myself, but perhaps there are subtle points of the interface between Gnus and pgg that I'd screw up... Thanks, -Miles -- Americans are broad-minded people.
