I just recently put the same group in two different topics. I was
surprised to see the total messages in both topics include the total
of messages in that group. Thus, when that group is the only group
with messages, the top level topic [ Gnus -- # ] has twice the number
of messages left in the group.
Is this a bug or a feature?
Jack.

Feature. :)
IIRC, the docs even go into the consequences of a group appear in more
than one topic, although mainly with reference to scoring.

Perl is really designed more for the guys that will hack Perl at least
20 minutes a day for the rest of their career. TCL/Python is more a
"20 minutes a week", and VB is probably in that "20 minutes a month"
group. :) -- Randal Schwartz
