Is there any way for nnfoo-open-server to get hold of the select
method it's trying to open? gnus-server-to-method won't necessarily
find it, since the server isn't open yet.

But nnchoke-open-server has arguments SERVER and PARAMETERS or
suchlike, and SERVER is the server name; what more do you want? You
can look up the parameters in PARAMETERS.

I want the select method that SERVER and PARAMETERS came from, so that
I can pass it back to various gnus functions that expect a select
method as an argument. gnus-group-prefixed-name, for example. (In
that case, I could pass the prefixed server name instead, but then
gnus-group-prefixed-name would just try to find the select method
itself.)

I think the parameters of the select method should be in `defs'. Is
it not?

It is, but that's not what I'm looking for. I want the select method
whose cadr is SERVER and whose cddr is DEFINITIONS, so I can pass it
back to Gnus functions that expect a select method.

Perhaps (cons 'nnfoo (cons SERVER DEFS))?

Perhaps. But perhaps not. It wouldn't be eq to the actual select
method; I don't know whether this would cause any problems.
I guess I'll just use gnus-server-to-method, but I'll have to do it
after -open-server returns. That'll be a little bit messy, but it
should work.

Does it work to say (format "nnchoke:%s" SERVER)? That would be the
server _name_, though.

Right, so that's what I pass to gnus-server-to-method. I'll just have
to do it after -open-server returns.
