@itemize @bullet
+@item Supported Emacs versions
+The following Emacs versions are supported by No Gnus:
+@itemize @bullet
+
+@item Emacs 22 and up
+@item XEmacs 21.4
+@item XEmacs 21.5
+@item SXEmacs

@item Installation changes
@itemize @bullet
for more information about nntp marks. Note that downgrading isn't
safe in general.
+@item Incompatibility when switching from Emacs 23 to Emacs 22
+In Emacs 23, Gnus uses Emacs' new internal coding system @code{utf-8-emacs}
+for saving articles drafts and @file{~/.newsrc.eld}. These files may not
+be read correctly in Emacs 22 and below. If you want to use Gnus across
+different Emacs versions, you may set @code{mm-auto-save-coding-system}
+to @code{emacs-mule}.
+@c FIXME: Untested. (Or did anyone test it?)
+@c Cf. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.gnus.general/66251/focus=66344
+
@item Lisp files are now installed in @file{.../site-lisp/gnus/} by default.
It defaulted to @file{.../site-lisp/} formerly. In addition to this,
the new installer issues a warning if other Gnus installations which
will shadow the latest one are detected. You can then remove those
shadows manually or remove them using @code{make
remove-installed-shadows}.
+
+@item The installation directory name is allowed to have spaces and/or tabs.
@end itemize
@item New packages and libraries within Gnus
@itemize @bullet
+@item New version of @code{nnimap}
+
+@code{nnimap} has been reimplemented in a mostly-compatible way. See
+the Gnus manual for a description of the new interface. In
+particular, @code{nnimap-inbox} and the client side split method has
+changed.
+
@item Gnus includes the Emacs Lisp @acronym{SASL} library.
This provides a clean @acronym{API} to @acronym{SASL} mechanisms from
passphrase is managed by this mechanism. Passwords for ManageSieve
connections are managed by this mechanism, after querying the user
about whether to do so.
+
+@item Using EasyPG with Gnus
+When EasyPG, is available, Gnus will use it instead of @acronym{PGG}.
+EasyPG is an Emacs user interface to GNU Privacy Guard. @xref{Top,
+,EasyPG Assistant user's manual, epa, EasyPG Assistant user's manual}.
+EasyPG is included in Emacs 23 and available separately as well.

+@item Changes in group mode
+@c ************************
+
+@itemize @bullet
+
+@item
+Symbols like @code{gcc-self} now has the same presedence rules in
+@code{gnus-parameters} as other ``real'' variables: The last match
+wins instead of the first match.
+
+@item
+Old intermediate incoming mail files (@file{Incoming*}) are deleted
+after a couple of days, not immediately. @xref{Mail Source
+Customization}.

@item Changes in summary and article mode
@itemize @bullet
+
+@item There's now only one variable that determines how @acronym{HTML}
+is rendered: @code{mm-text-html-renderer}.
+
+@item Gnus now supports sticky article buffers. Those are article buffers
+that are not reused when you select another article. @xref{Sticky
+Articles}.
+
+@c @item Bookmarks
+@c FIXME: To be added
+
+@item Gnus can selectively display @samp{text/html} articles
+with a WWW browser with @kbd{K H}. @xref{MIME Commands}.
+
+@c gnus-registry-marks
+@c FIXME: To be added
+
@item International host names (@acronym{IDNA}) can now be decoded
inside article bodies using @kbd{W i}
(@code{gnus-summary-idna-message}). This requires that GNU Libidn
(@url{http://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/}) has been installed.
@c FIXME: Also mention @code{message-use-idna}?
+@item The non-@acronym{ASCII} group names handling has been much
+improved. The back ends that fully support non-@acronym{ASCII} group
+names are now @code{nntp}, @code{nnml}, and @code{nnrss}. Also the
+agent, the cache, and the marks features work with those back ends.
+@xref{Non-ASCII Group Names}.
+
@item Gnus now displays @acronym{DNS} master files sent as text/dns
using dns-mode.
@kbd{/ r} (@code{gnus-summary-limit-to-replied}) and @kbd{/ R}
(@code{gnus-summary-limit-to-recipient}). @xref{Limiting}.
+@item You can now fetch all ticked articles from the server using
+@kbd{Y t} (@code{gnus-summary-insert-ticked-articles}). @xref{Summary
+Generation Commands}.
+
@item Gnus supports a new sort command in the Summary buffer:
@kbd{C-c C-s C-t} (@code{gnus-summary-sort-by-recipient}). @xref{Summary
Sorting}.
@item
The option @code{mm-fill-flowed} can be used to disable treatment of
format=flowed messages. Also, flowed text is disabled when sending
-inline @acronym{PGP} signed messages.

+inline @acronym{PGP} signed messages. @xref{Flowed text, ,Flowed text,
+emacs-mime, The Emacs MIME Manual}. (New in Gnus 5.10.7)
+@c This entry is also present in the node "Oort Gnus".
+
+@item Now the new command @kbd{S W}
+(@code{gnus-article-wide-reply-with-original}) for a wide reply in the
+article buffer yanks a text that is in the active region, if it is set,
+as well as the @kbd{R} (@code{gnus-article-reply-with-original}) command.
+Note that the @kbd{R} command in the article buffer no longer accepts a
+prefix argument, which was used to make it do a wide reply.
+@xref{Article Keymap}.
+
+@item The new command @kbd{C-h b}
+(@code{gnus-article-describe-bindings}) used in the article buffer now
+shows not only the article commands but also the real summary commands
+that are accessible from the article buffer.
@end itemize
The @code{References} header is hidden by default. To make all
headers visible, use @code{(setq message-hidden-headers nil)}.
@xref{Message Headers, ,Message Headers, message, Message Manual}.
+
+@item You can highlight different levels of citations like in the
+article buffer. See @code{gnus-message-highlight-citation}.
+
+@item @code{auto-fill-mode} is enabled by default in Message mode.
+See @code{message-fill-column}. @xref{Various Message Variables, ,
+Message Headers, message, Message Manual}.
+
+@item You can now store signature files in a special directory
+named @code{message-signature-directory}.
+
+@item The option @code{message-citation-line-format} controls the format
+of the "Whomever writes:" line. You need to set
+@code{message-citation-line-function} to
+@code{message-insert-formatted-citation-line} as well.
@end itemize
+@item Changes in Browse Server mode
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item Gnus' sophisticated subscription methods are now available in
+Browse Server buffers as well using the variable
+@code{gnus-browse-subscribe-newsgroup-method}.
+
+@end itemize
+
+
@item Changes in back ends
@itemize @bullet
@item The nnml back end allows other compression programs beside @file{gzip}
for compressed message files. @xref{Mail Spool}.
+
+@item The nnml back end supports group compaction.
+
+This feature, accessible via the functions
+@code{gnus-group-compact-group} (@kbd{G z} in the group buffer) and
+@code{gnus-server-compact-server} (@kbd{z} in the server buffer)
+renumbers all articles in a group, starting from 1 and removing gaps.
+As a consequence, you get a correct total article count (until
+messages are deleted again).

@item Appearance
@itemize @bullet
@item The tool bar has been updated to use GNOME icons.
-You can also customize the tool bar. There's no documentation in the
-manual yet, but @kbd{M-x customize-apropos RET -tool-bar$} should get
-you started. (Only for Emacs, not in XEmacs.)
+You can also customize the tool bars: @kbd{M-x customize-apropos RET

@c FIXME: Document this in the manual
@item The tool bar icons are now (de)activated correctly
@item The @file{all.SCORE} file can be edited from the group buffer
using @kbd{W e}.
+@item You can set @code{gnus-mark-copied-or-moved-articles-as-expirable}
+to a non-@code{nil} value so that articles that have been read may be
+marked as expirable automatically when copying or moving them to a group
+that has auto-expire turned on. The default is @code{nil} and copying
+and moving of articles behave as before; i.e., the expirable marks will
+be unchanged except that the marks will be removed when copying or
+moving articles to a group that has not turned auto-expire on.
+@xref{Expiring Mail}.
+
+@item NoCeM support has been removed.
+
+@item Carpal mode has been removed.
