Any good reason why nndraft.el is not in 19.32/Gnus 5.3?

Any good reason why nndraft.el is not in 19.32/Gnus 5.3?

[Steven L Baur]

It makes the basic Gnus 5.3 unusable as I get a bomb on `can't load
nndraft' when attempting to start Gnus.

Fortunately Red Gnus appears to come up ...

It wasn't included because I removed the draft thingies late in
September.  You'll have to kill off your nndraft group, I'm afraid.

I guess nndraft will be coming back again, though.

:-(, the first coming incompatibility Red Gnus -vs- 5.3.

I also notice that gnus-article-hide-pem didn't make it either :-(.
There's probably more, but I doubt I'm going to spend much more time
with 5.3 ...

Well -- it's just more functionality, which is to be expected.  You
know.

Difference between Gnus versions? (was Re: Any good reason why nndraft.el is not in 19.32/Gnus 5.3?)

[C. R. Oldham]

I've noticed several references on the ding list to Gnus 5.2.xx, 5.3, and
now Red Gnus.  I know Red Gnus is the next version of Gnus (v 6?  5.4?),
but I don't understand the difference between 5.2.xx and 5.3.  Can someone
fill me in?  Is 5.3 later or earlier than 5.2.39?

Thanks,

5.3 is the version of 5.2.x that was included with Emacs 19.32, and is
neither later or earlier than 5.2.39.  Red Gnus will end up as
5.4/5.5.
