** Gnus changes.
-*** nntp.el has been totally rewritten in an asynchronous fashion.
+*** The Gnus alpha distribution no longer bundles Custom and Widget.
+If your Emacs doesn't come with these libraries, fetch them from
+<URL:http://www.dina.kvl.dk/~abraham/custom/>. You also then need to
+add the following to the lisp/dgnushack.el file:
-*** Article prefetching functionality has been moved up into
-Gnus.
+ (push "~/lisp/custom" load-path)
-*** Scoring can now be performed with logical operators like
-`and', `or', `not', and parent redirection.
+Modify to suit your needs.
-*** Article washing status can be displayed in the
-article mode line.
+*** New functionality for using Gnus as an offline newsreader has been
+added. A plethora of new commands and modes have been added. See the
+Gnus manual for the full story.
-*** gnus.el has been split into many smaller files.
+*** The nndraft backend has returned, but works differently than
+before. All Message buffers are now also articles in the nndraft
+group, which is created automatically.
-*** Suppression of duplicate articles based on Message-ID.
+*** `gnus-alter-header-function' can now be used to alter header
+values.
-(setq gnus-suppress-duplicates t)

+outside the region: `C-c C-v'.

+re-highlighting of the article buffer.
+
+*** New element in `gnus-boring-article-headers' -- `long-to'.
+
+*** `M-i' symbolic prefix command. See the section "Symbolic
+Prefixes" in the Gnus manual for details.
+
+*** `L' and `I' in the summary buffer now take the symbolic prefix
+`a' to add the score rule to the "all.SCORE" file.
+
+*** `gnus-simplify-subject-functions' variable to allow greater
+control over simplification.
