I wonder what the feature freeze means for Gnus. Is it a freeze only for Emacs core functionality? Is adding limited features (to Gnus) still okay? Could you please clarify?

Tentatively, I think we could follow a similar procedure to what we did during the Emacs 22 release cycle, i.e. have Emacs CVS track the Gnus stable branch. As we get closer in the cycle, we'll have a harder freeze. Could you tell me what the status of Gnus development currently is, and these limited features you plan to implement are? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread
