+@item Upgrading from previous (stable) version if you have used No Gnus.
+
+If you have tried No Gnus (the unstable Gnus branch leading to this
+release) but went back to a stable version, be careful when upgrading
+to this version. In particular, you will probably want to remove the
+@file{~/News/marks} directory (perhaps selectively), so that flags are
+read from your @file{~/.newsrc.eld} instead of from the stale marks
+file, where this release will store flags for nntp. See a later entry
+for more information about nntp marks. Note that downgrading isn't
+safe in general.
+
+@item The nntp back end store article marks in @file{~/News/marks}.
+
+The directory can be changed using the (customizable) variable
+@code{nntp-marks-directory}, and marks can be disabled using the
+(back end) variable @code{nntp-marks-is-evil}. The advantage of this
+is that you can copy @file{~/News/marks} (using rsync, scp or
+whatever) to another Gnus installation, and it will realize what
+articles you have read and marked. The data in @file{~/News/marks}
+has priority over the same data in @file{~/.newsrc.eld}.
+
+@item
+Picons can be displayed right from the textual address, see
+@code{gnus-picon-style}
+
+@item
+You can import and export your @acronym{RSS} subscriptions from
+@acronym{OPML} files. @xref{RSS}.
+
+@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.
+
+@item You can now drag and drop attachments to the Message buffer.
+
+@item @kbd{/ r} limits the summary buffer to replied articles.
+
@item @acronym{ANSI} @acronym{SGR} control sequences can be transformed
using @kbd{W A}.
It is enabled by default (see @code{password-cache}), with a short
timeout of 16 seconds (see @code{password-cache-expiry}). If
-@acronym{PGG} is used as the @acronym{PGP} backend, the @acronym{PGP}
+@acronym{PGG} is used as the @acronym{PGP} back end, the @acronym{PGP}
passphrase is managed by this mechanism. Passwords for ManageSieve
connections are managed by this mechanism, after quering the user about
whether to do so.
@item @acronym{IMAP} identity (@acronym{RFC} 2971) is supported.
By default, Gnus do not send any information about itself, but you can
-customize it using @code{nnimap-id}.
+customize it using the variable @code{nnimap-id}.
-@item The @file{all.SCORE} file can now be edited from the group buffer
+@item The @file{all.SCORE} file can be edited from the group buffer
using @kbd{W e}.
+@item Gnus now MIME decode articles even when they lack "MIME-Version" header.
+This changes the default of @code{gnus-article-loose-mime}.
+
+@item Gnus now view DNS master files sent as text/dns using dns-mode.
+
+@item Gnus now support the ``hashcash'' client puzzle anti-spam idea.
+See the Gnus manual, section Hashcash, for more information. Use
+(setq message-generate-hashcash t) to enable.
