The files in contrib aren't strictly part of Gnus. They are provided for convenience. ,----[ contrib/README ] | The files in this directory are not (yet) part of the Gnus | distribution proper.

If the current `xml.el' works with 20.7, it could be replaced. But I don't have Emacs 20.7 and I don't read RSS with Gnus, so I don't know. Probably it's not worth the trouble to test it. E.g. for Emacs 21.[12] `ucs-tables.el', only worked with rev=1.8 from Emacs CVS, not with later versions. Bye, Reiner. -- ,,, (o o) ---ooO-(_)-Ooo--- | PGP key available | http://rsteib.home.pages.de/
