Thanks. I should have focused my question more specifically. What Mule-related problems have Gnus developers experienced? To read and write to mailing lists and newsgroups that use Japanese and Chinese, I need Gnus. To write articles and monographs that include CJK scripts, I need Emacs. If it were a question of only one script, say Japanese, then I could run a nipponized version of Linux, use kterm, etc. But it is precisely the ability to deal with multiple scripts that makes the new Emacs so attractive to me, whose background is classical Chinese and Buddhist prajnaparamita studies. I want to see that multi-script functionality become a solid part of Emacs so that Emacs offers the best solution in this area available anywhere. Jon Babcock jon@kanji.com
