can someone explain to me the difference between GNUS (the old one ?), Gnus
(the newer one ?) and the one w/ Xemacs ? as I undertood in the web pages,
GNUS is dead, God saves Gnus :) but what about the Xemacs version ?

well. I'm running XEmacs 21.1 w/ Mule under a FreeBSD box. until the last week,
I was running GNUS (Gnus?) featured w/ XEmacs which is version 1.45 from the
XEmacs point of view. I upgrade this week end w/ some problem. one of them
was that I've apel/flim/semi installed which imply a conflict about the
mailcap.el library. XEmacs found the flim one before the gnus one. hue!
for instance, I rename the Gnus mailcap.el to mail-cap.el as well as requires
and provides. which is to be the real one ? another problam was the
installation procedure which is not so good from my oint of view. so I hack
the installation procedure from apel/flim/semi to Gnus to simplify the
installation process. are you interrested and do you have the right to
integrate it to Gnus ? the next step is to make gnus a FreeBSD port. not so
simple :(

the new installation procedure is here :

        <URL:http://clefevre.citeweb.net/gnusmk.tar.gz>

apel, flim and semi are there :

        <URL:ftp://ftp.etl.go.jp/pub/mule/apel/>
        <URL:ftp://ftp.etl.go.jp/pub/mule/flim/flim-1.12/>
        <URL:ftp://ftp.etl.go.jp/pub/mule/semi/semi-1.13-for-flim-1.12/>

PS : how to crosspost between different nntp servers ? is it possible ?

Cyrille.
