You're missing something. Thanks to Lars's wonderful style it's quite
a good read. It's actually the most entertaining manual I know.

Now for some critique: I know of no material that can be fully
recommended to Gnus-newbies (i.e. people that mastered other
newsreaders, but want to try/switch to Gnus) [1]. The manual is to
baroque for this occassion - newbies just want to post a followup, not 
puzzle about the 8 different ways to do it presented in `Summary Post
Commands', for example.

[1] I have tried to write something like that, but it's in german
(local students being the main target audience). If somebody who
understands german feels the pressing need to proofread against
glaring errors: <URL:http://www.usenet.at/reader/gnus.html>
