As a former regular Gnus contributor and as a current and long time Gnus user, I want to give you my blessing. :-) They are definitively ton of little code improvement you can make. All of this technical debt reduction will lead to a better Gnus and a better development future, so yes please! I don't know how true it is nowadays, but a lot of what was blocking improvement back then was support for old Emacs version and XEmacs support. Now that Gnus is in Emacs source tree, I imagine that might not applies anymore, so, lucky you! :) =2D-=20 Julien Danjou # Free Software hacker # https://julien.danjou.info --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEU2G9QAFbdDgnORAaYRupUIt4pcIFAlnV1tEACgkQYRupUIt4 pcLP5Q/6A24ddW96hySOP5x10MJIqyh3myFCUcQxtRhAWx4WeqqttHCld6pPHYRY 72gWhtWHpbLvd/GFmDQuFc0NE5csuP/vocYe2qGxXNemneRDVe/6M2vfsBZ9Rzs0 utpWEofANQt7gig/T2oYgiFtUWGlQap/jg0x0WXEDIYptISOSU64uPO8SEP3gIY8 GKFheSG0iTq/POghR1LvMWhapeNu5iK7OKLhDjx+QxxKWZMEg8J9uO4/2B6ZXQ/r Jc4c5dV9nygCobPuUdT42SPa1C3pq5/zGYPrs6cRJl3FLuZM6Ey6qro+2LLcl0cW 0doWNRXExSNYTZTpI0EVjv1brrPM6sCdZ/04mOAKMyc1XIx78tK4A4NyIFUw3GkV tGVQ/EorfZZFr4C9aXpY6txySIwAnjpcsRfBO9akjcQfHUGwFUc8Lxq4cMFoIX/t vbUnKeETWgLCVJpoECIZwYlxpKU68IZXZgGNZVvHDq3ah6U2pYGhArS/uD7r4mo+ 52mix+qIdF638YLeLUoEDPBov5PRxG8HcBWyfIK/SkYcCPw8OkSFUYUS4luGc1UT Z9ThIjVfA11WaZf6Tn61kJ3fcnaMr8icJPR4+FW1+duoDyoKhXmDHY/9hwiyhU/q yWiCOMypVd7ouN7qVhfWPR/N9+Kor9J6o2Ufxxqarrm65eyMOyQ= =hOP2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
