I'm afraid not.  I'm getting an error when trying to enter groups
with XEmacs 21.2(beta1) and XEmacs 20.4 (both non-mule).

I hereby claim title as "Naming Czar", having selected names Lars
liked for both "gnus.org" (Gnus Network User Services) and "pgnus"
(Pterodactyl GNUS).

I've now compiled a non-MULE XEmacs so that I can test these things
better.

Heh.  O.K. "Naming Czar", please come up with a new name for XEmacs
that doesn't suck[1] and the developers will accept.  Please?  Pretty
please?  :-)

Footnotes: 
[1]  Worse than `XEmacs' of course.

Indeed.  

Recently, one of the lower-level sysadmins at a place I know was
listing and describing all of the software available in their
distributed-filesystem-mounted software repository.

It took some effort to convince said person that "XEmacs" should not
have a description string of "X Window interface to Emacs".

*sigh*
