I'm running emacs 26.1 now and though the gnus version doesn't seem to
have changed (stil 5.13), I'd like to ask if there's been any work done
on the sync server/gnus-cloud/whatever it's called now. Is it something
that I should be able to use without too much pain at this point?

Hi Jason,
sorry for the late reply.
I use it to upload my newsrc and it works all right.

Out of curiosity -- I'd always thought it was a bad idea to share
newsrc.eld files between machines, as the article numbers aren't
guaranteed to be the same between them. Is that not an issue for you?

Across NNTP servers it works. You can choose backends to synchronize, so
NNTP makes sense but nnrss nnml etc. probably wouldn't.
(The gnus-cloud format is like a multipart message, and the article sync
is just one use case. You can sync files and any kind of data through it.)

Interesting, I was confused then. I only have nntp and nnimap servers, I
might try gnus-cloud for the nntp server.
Thanks,
Eric

I tried using gnus cloud back in August 2016, but it stranded on some
unresolved problemsback then:
news:nntp.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.gnus.general/87123
I guess now it's time to try again...? :-)
What version of emacs would I need to get a working gnus cloud?
I'm currently on emacs 25, is that too old?
