I'm not sure.  I don't care about it.  Anyone else?

Are there any advantages with epg.el over pgg.el?  S/MIME support
through gpgsm?

I'm not sure it is a good idea to recommend an external package for
PGP support again.  Practically, that makes it more difficult to use
PGP with Gnus, which defeats the goal of supporting PGP.  What do
others think?

I'd really want whatever PGP package we use to either be part of Gnus
CVS or Emacs CVS.  Automatically copying the files into Gnus CVS from
epg.el's CVS would work fine, I think.  Would that be OK?  Then all
changes to epg.el has to go through you before they hit Gnus CVS.
