But a lot of these faces faces that got this treatment did not appear in a previously released version of Emacs, so for these faces the `put' statements are just pure waste. At some point I went over the Emacs CVS and deleted all those `put' statements for faces that were not in emacs-21.4. I didn't do that for Gnus because I didn't know what the procedure should be for Gnus. Should I just do those changes in Emacs CVS and they get imported in Gnus CVS? Or should I provide a patch here and someone would commit the patch to both Gnus and Emacs? Please advise. Thanks --dan
