 * Changes in Oort Gnus
 
+** Better handling of Microsoft citation styles
+
+Gnus now tries to recognize the mangled header block that some Microsoft
+mailers use to indicate that the rest of the message is a citation, even
+though it is not quoted in any way.  The variable
+`gnus-cite-unsightly-citation-regexp' matches the start of these
+citations.
+
+** gnus-article-skip-boring
+
+If you set `gnus-article-skip-boring' to t, then Gnus will not scroll
+down to show you a page that contains only boring text, which by
+default means cited text and signature.  You can customize what is
+skippable using `gnus-article-boring-faces'.
+
+This feature is especially useful if you read many articles that
+consist of a little new content at the top with a long, untrimmed
+message cited below.
+
+** The format spec %C for positioning point has changed to %*.
+
+** The new variable `gnus-parameters' can be used to set group parameters.
+
+Earlier this was done only via `G p' (or `G c'), which stored the
+parameters in ~/.newsrc.eld, but via this variable you can enjoy the
+powers of customize, and simplified backups since you set the variable
+in ~/.emacs instead of ~/.newsrc.eld.  The variable maps regular
+expressions matching group names to group parameters, a'la:
+
+     (setq gnus-parameters
+           '(("mail\\..*"
+              (gnus-show-threads nil)
+              (gnus-use-scoring nil))
+             ("^nnimap:\\(foo.bar\\)$"
+              (to-group . "\\1"))))
+
 ** Smileys (":-)", ";-)" etc) are now iconized for Emacs too.
 
 Put (setq gnus-treat-display-smileys nil) in ~/.emacs to disable it.

 ** Gnus supports Cancel Locks in News.

+This means a header "Cancel-Lock" is inserted in news posting.  It is
+used to determine if you wrote a article or not (for cancelling and
+superseding).  Gnus generates a random password string the first time
+you post a message, and saves it in your ~/.emacs using the Custom
+system.  While the variable is called `canlock-password', it is not
+security sensitive data.  Publishing your canlock string on the web
+will not allow anyone to be able to anything she could not already do.

 ** Gnus supports server-side mail filtering using Sieve.
