Since

- Custom 1.0 is now released and bundled with Red Gnus 0.66.
- All the native part of Red Gnus 0.66 has customize support.
- I use customize for all my Gnus related variables, and it works.

I think it would be nice if you would try the customize package again,
and see if it would be a disaster to release it now.  Setting some of
the variables from your `.gnus' would be a good test.  Suggestions for
how to divide some of the larger customize groups would be very
helpful.

There now is a customize submenu in the help menu.  

A known problem is that only the variables defined in already loaded
files are available.  The proper solution to this problem will require
some cooperation from the (X)Emacs maintainers.
