Time to move some .el files around?

Time to move some .el files around?

[Lars Ingebrigtsen]

As previously mentioned, many of the low level library files currently
in the gnus/ directory don't really belong there.  So I propose moving
the following files (where "/" means "the lisp directory"):

auth-source.el -> /
compface.el -> /image
ecomplete.el -> /
flow-fill.el -> /mail
gravatar.el -> /image
gssapi.el -> /net
html2text.el -> /net
ietf-drums.el -> /mail
mail-parse.el -> /mail
mail-prsvr.el -> /mail
mailcap.el -> /net
plstore.el -> /
pop3.el -> /net
qp.el -> /mail
registry.el -> /
rfc1843.el -> /international
rfc2045.el -> /mail
rfc2047.el -> /mail
rfc2231.el -> /mail
rtree.el -> /
sieve-manage.el -> /net
sieve-mode.el -> /net
sieve.el -> /net
smiley.el -> /image
starttls.el -> /net
utf7.el -> /international
yenc.el -> /mail

In addition, I propose making a new directory /image and moving
image-mode.el, iimage.el (etc) into that directory.

Does this sound OK?

Some minor cleanup will have to be done on some of the files before
moving, because some Gnus functions have crept into a few of the
files...

I've changed the test directory structure on master, so that it reflects
the file organisation. As auth-source.el has a test file, if you move
the source, you'll need to move the test as well.

Good point.  I'll try to make sure that all the test files are moved in
the same commit.

I suggested that file, but after my changes on the file and research
into sasl*.el I see that gssapi.el is only relevant for IMAP.  For
example we can't use gssapi.el for sieve.

So it might be ok to leave the file where it is.

It's still a general, low-level networking library, so it doesn't make
sense that it lives in the Gnus directory.  Something else that wants to
talk IMAP may need it one day...

Yes.  And I tried to use gsasl with SMTP, which seems to work. So I'll
probably work on getting gssapi.el working for SMTP as well - so no real
objection to move the file around.  It's just not as generally useful as
I had hoped...

Great; I'll start moving stuff later today.

In the past, when we've moved files on master, that makes it more of a 
pain to merge changes to these files that are committed on emacs-25.  
Just sayin'.

True.  But I've done the move now...  Oh, well.  Hopefully emacs-25 will
be released soon and this won't be much of an issue.  :-)
