I've committed two news files gnus-news.texi and gnus-news.el.  (See
<news:E1Adz6j-0001bU-00@quimby.gnus.org> for details.)

`gnus-news.texi' is the master file, which is included in `gnus.texi'.
I added a new node "No Gnus"; Please adjust the menu title (-> see
FIXME).  texi/GNUS-NEWS can now be created using "make GNUS-NEWS" in
the texi/ subdirectory (after re-running configure).

What is missing: Instead of ./texi/GNUS-NEWS we should create it in
the parent directory.  Probably it's best to do this using commit
script on quimby?  Another script should disallow changes to
./GNUS-NEWS.  (I'm not a CVS expert, but IIRC it's possible.)

I already have converted the current entries form GNUS-NEWS into
`gnus-news.texi' and the auto-generated output is nice, IMHO.  If
anyone wants to improve `gnus-news.el', please do so.  E.g. one could
use `texinfmt' (like in `infohack.el') instead of the external
"makeinfo".

Bye, Reiner.
