However, that hasn't been trivial in the past (what with the Emacs feature freeze that lasted two years and all). When a new, general facility has been developed because Gnus needed it, it would be counter-productive to not distribute it with Gnus just because it's not Gnus-specific. But when merging, the general stuff should not end up in the Gnus directory, though. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
