Client-side labels wouldn't be that difficult to implement, if someone would want to do that. Perhaps as a shadow hierarchy of labels and notes to go with the groups. (Client-side (i.e. Gnus) as opposed to server-side (nn*) since that would mean just implementing these things once.) Anyway, I was thinking while in the shower -- what now? Pterodactyl Gnus was kinda about MIME support and multilingualization. Along the way, stuff like the article display revamp, nnimap, mail-fetching, posting styles, and lotsa web-based interfaces was added. But is there anything major, like MIME, left to implement. Is Gnus (don't say it!) getting feature-complete? I don't believe that for a second, but I've been asked a couple of times -- what's next? And I can't really think of any biggies for the O-named Gnus series. Perhaps the next step should be to make Gnus usable^H^H^H^Her-friendly. Nah. I'm sure somebody will think of something. :-) Or one could start working on that TODO list that's in the manual. ... Nah. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
