Lars> Anyway, I think it's pretty cool, and I like the names, Lars> especially the last one. :-) There are different development branches in Semi-gnusae. t-gnus-6.13 (T-gnus) Public branch for Semi-gnus people. It is based on Pterodactyl Gnus (possibly Gnus 5.8). keiich (Nana-gnus) Suzuki Keiich's personal branch. Based on Gnus 5.6.45. chaos-1_13 (Chaos) Tomo's personal branch. Based on Gnus 5.6.45.
