Re: Sync of Gnus with Emacs

[Katsumi Yamaoka <yamaoka@jpl.org>]

I switched Gnus to v5-10.  Oh, how old this is!  I flinched.
Although I never make light of it, I like latest version very
much even if there may be some bugs. ;-)

Thanks for the guidance.  I have some questions.

Isn't deleting Emacs 20 stuff necessity?  How about XEmacs stuff?
It includes replacing of gnus-point-at-bol with point-at-bol,
using of with-syntax-table and a lot of other things.

mm-inline-text-html-render-with-w3m doesn't work with the latest
released version of emacs-w3m.  May I change it and related stuff?
It is not a bugfix, though.  The emacs-w3m team aren't interested
in maintaining of old versions of emacs-w3m.

What date should we use for the ChangeLog entries?

Thanks in advance.
