The term "followup" is not Gnus specific and obviously it would make
no sense to explain it everywhere it appears in the manual.  Therefor,
we have the node "Terminology" where many terms are explained.  You
can also find that node, when looking up "followup" in the Index:

,----[ (info "(gnus)Index") ]
| * follow up:                             Terminology.
| * followup:                              Composing Messages.
`----

,----[ (info "(gnus)Terminology") ]
| "follow up"
|      Post an article to the current newsgroup responding to the article
|      you are reading.
`----

What do you think?  Feel free to suggest improvements!

Bye, Reiner.
