I don't see much correlation right now, but don't think this indicates anything wrong. I use the Gnu scoring mechanism to do 2 things mainly: 1. Use adapative scoring to push threads I am currently reading to the top of the Summary buffer 2. Use large negative temp scores to force spam and off-topic threads to be expunged so I dont' even see them. :-) I use Grouplens in non-override mode so that I can see both my normal Gnus score and the Grouplens prediction and find that I am more likely to pick a low-scored article when it has a high Grouplens prediction and have found some useful and/or enjoyable threads that way. > Right now, I think the nicest feature of GroupLens gnus is that I can > read groups using the ',' key to take me to the next highest scored > article. I don't see enough predictions in the groups I read (mostly comp.os.linux.*) to be able to do this. Normally only 0% - 10% of the articles have predictions. > What I would like to figure out how to do is adjust the scoring somehow > so I can expunge the articles with low predictions < 2 in rec.humor for > example, and see the articles with high predictions plus I'd like to see > all of the articles for which I have no prediction.

I think this would require another gnus-*-score-by-* function that can adjust the Gnus score according to its Grouplens prediction value. --[Lance]
