Remember me? Anyway, Romain Francoise reminded me that it was ten years ago that I started rewriting Gnus. (I thought that was next year.) But Googling revealed this: So that's been and gone, but the ChangeLog says that the first releases were: -------- Mon Dec 12 18:15:03 1994 Lars Ingebrigtsen * gnus.el: Version 0.2 released after some initial bugs were fixed. Sun Dec 11 06:32:40 1994 Lars Ingebrigtsen * gnus.el: The very first (ding) Gnus pre-release. -------- Pretty typical. :-) So it's six days until the biiig anniversary. Which is, true to form, too late to create something marvelous, but I could try to whip up some t-shirts in time for X-mas. Long-sleeved ones, since it's winter and all. (In some parts of the world) Taking a cue from the final sentence in the message referred to above, I just put this together as a stab towards a design: Any interest? I'm not even sure whether it's possible to get this together in such a short time, and it's doubtful that the postal service will be able to get them out in time for, er, whatever, but isn't that just what Gnus development is about? :-) -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
