Here is an overview of the files:
compface.el
- Provides the ELisp-based uncompface program. It is excellent
- and practical (actually you can replace lisp/compface.el with
- it), however the author is missing and the copyright has not
- been assigned yet.

gnus-namazu.el
- This file defines the command to search mails and persistent
- articles with Namazu, which is a full-text search engine
- distributed at http://namazu.org, and to browse its results
- with Gnus.

-gpg-ring.el
-gpg.el
+gnus-kill-to-score.el
-nnir.el
-
- Interface to various full-text search engines. Provides less
- functionality than gnus-namazu.el, but also supports programs
- other than Namazu. Current implementation is restricted to
- nnml folders, but could be extended for other backends.
+ Convert kill files to score files. See (info "(gnus)Converting Kill
+ Files").
one-line-cookie.diff
sendmail.el
smtpmail.el
- Copies of the corresponding files from the Emacs lisp/mail/
- directory, to provide features (occasionally) needed by Gnus which
- may not be provided by the versions of these files in older Emacs
- distributions. XEmacs users should NOT use this, since it doesn't
- work. See the XEmacs mail-lib module instead.
-
-ssl.el
-
- Obsolete interface to OpenSSL. Completely replaced by
- lisp/tls.el, which supports both GnuTLS and OpenSSL. This
- file will be removed eventually.

ucs-tables.el
This file provides improved Unicode functionality. It defines
- functions unify-8859-on-encoding-mode and
- unify-8859-on-decoding-mode which unify the Latin-N charsets.
- Without unify-8859-on-encoding-mode, composing a Latin-9 reply
- to a Latin-1 posting, say, will produce a multipart posting (a
- Latin-1 part and a Latin-9 part), or perhaps UTF-8. With
- unify-8859-on-encoding-mode, the outgoing posting can be all
- Latin-1 or all Latin-9 in most cases.
-
- It is harmless to turn on unify-8859-on-encoding-mode, but
- unify-8859-on-decoding-mode may unexpectedly change files in
+ functions `unify-8859-on-encoding-mode' and
+ `unify-8859-on-decoding-mode' which unify the Latin-N charsets.

vcard.el
-xml.el
-
- This is used for parsing RSS feeds. Part of Emacs 21.3 and later.
- Note that the version of this file in the Gnus contrib/ directory is
- out of date with respect to the version in the Emacs tree.
