This raises an interesting question: How *do* you upgrade to Oort? I managed to find a 0.7 installed (via Google ... no hints in gnus.org), but the documentation I found appears to be just the general gnus documentation. Is there a "differences" document discussing what a gnus 5.8.8 or 5.9 users must to do upgrade to Oort? Better handling of HTML seems pretty compelling, since I haven't found any approach I'm satisfied with in gnus 5.x.
