I tried to rename a topic (any topic), but it bombed out on me. Here's a
quick fix


*** gnus-topic.el~	Mon Dec  4 10:35:15 1995
--- gnus-topic.el	Mon Dec  4 10:38:06 1995

*** 607,611 ****
     (list
      (completing-read "Rename topic: " gnus-topic-alist nil t)
!     (read-string (format "Rename %s to: "))))
    (let ((top (gnus-topic-find-topology old-name))
  	(entry (assoc old-name gnus-topic-alist)))
--- 607,611 ----
     (list
      (completing-read "Rename topic: " gnus-topic-alist nil t)
!     (read-string "New name: ")))
    (let ((top (gnus-topic-find-topology old-name))
  	(entry (assoc old-name gnus-topic-alist)))


Renaming of topics seems to be a little bit goofy still. For instance,
after renaming a topic the new name does not show up until one 'g'ets
new news.
