Since the vote was to remove that file from Emacs, I'll do that.
This file can be removed from the Gnus repository too, I just need to
fix netrc.el there so it doesn't depend on encrypt.el (it will use it
only if loaded). Can I assume that removal from Gnus CVS is sufficient
to please everyone and will cause removal from the Emacs CVS as well?
Thanks
Ted
