I think you can simply do a checkout of this branch and commit the bugfixes (possibly backported from the trunk) there: mkdir 5-10 cd 5-10 cvs -d :pserver:YOURLOGIN@cvs.gnus.org:/usr/local/cvsroot co -r v5-10 gnus [ I'm not aware of a more simple possibility, but I'm not too familiar with cvs branches. ] We can also check in post-5.10.6 other bug- and doc-fixes in this branch, I think. Maybe going thru the articles in gmane.emacs.gnus.commit (or the ChangeLog files) and check for doc-fixes and similar would be a good idea and/or do such check-ins in both branches from now on. > I'd like to move the v5-10-6 tag from revision 6.27 to 7.2 for > gnus-cus.el and from 6.186 to 7.7 for gnus-agent.el.

I think a v5-10-7 should not be created unless Lars is doing a release numbered 5.10.7. Bye, Reiner. -- ,,, (o o) ---ooO-(_)-Ooo--- PGP key available via WWW http://rsteib.home.pages.de/
