I kept thinking it would somehow be excluded from Oort Gnus' official release, but I realize now that it's better to just add it to the manual because people are using it and it's pretty stable. I know this goes against the "no new features" status of Oort Gnus, though. So I need to know: should gnus-registry.el be officially added to the manual, or should it be officially ignored until No Gnus? As to what features the registry provides: - tracking of message followups by message ID references - tracking of followups by subject and sender (optional) - tracking of spam processor invocations - (planned) tracking of spam scores Note that there is no special code in the registry to deal with spam-related tracking, it's all generic "extra data" storage associated with a message ID. So the registry doesn't depend on spam.el. Thanks! Ted
