* Changes in Oort Gnus
+** Gnus decodes morse encoded messages if you press W m.
+
+** Unread count correct in nnimap groups.
+
+The estimated number of unread articles in the group buffer should now
+be correct for nnimap groups. This is achieved by calling
+`nnimap-fixup-unread-after-getting-new-news' from the
+`gnus-setup-news-hook' (called on startup) and
+gnus-after-getting-new-news-hook. (called after getting new mail). If
+you have modified those variables from the default, you may want to
+add n-f-u-a-g-n-n again. If you were happy with the estimate and want
+to save some (minimal) time when getting new mail, remove the
+function.
+
+** Group Carbon Copy (GCC) quoting
+
+To support groups that contains SPC and other weird characters, groups
+are quoted before they are placed in the Gcc: header. This means
+variables such as `gnus-message-archive-group' should no longer
+contain quote characters to make groups containing SPC work. Also, if
+you are using the string "nnml:foo, nnml:bar" (indicating Gcc into two
+groups) you must change it to return the list ("nnml:foo" "nnml:bar"),
+otherwise the Gcc: line will be quoted incorrectly. Note that
+returning the string "nnml:foo, nnml:bar" was incorrect earlier, it
+just didn't generate any problems since it was inserted directly.
+
+** ~/News/overview/ not used.
+
+As a result of the following change, the ~/News/overview/ directory is
+not used any more. You can safely delete the entire hierarchy.
+
** gnus-agent
-The Gnus Agent is now enabled by default. This means that, e.g.,
-headers are not downloaded from agentized servers by default (agentize
-servers by using `J a' in the server buffer). Gnus will not start to
-download articles unless you instruct it to do so, though, by using
-e.g. J u or J s from the group buffer. Revert to the old behaviour
-with `(setq gnus-agent nil)'. Note that putting (gnus-agentize) in
-~/.gnus is not needed any more.
+The Gnus Agent is now enabled by default, and all nntp and nnimap
+servers from gnus-select-method and gnus-secondary-select-method are
+agentized by default. Earlier only the server in gnus-select-method
+was agentized by the default, and the agent was disabled by default.
+When the agent is enabled, headers are now also retrieved from the
+Agent cache instead of the backends when possible. Earlier this only
+happened in the unplugged state. You can enroll or remove servers
+with `J a' and `J r' in the server buffer. Gnus will not download
+articles into the Agent cache, unless you instruct it to do so,
+though, by using `J u' or `J s' from the Group buffer. You revert to
+the old behaviour of having the Agent disabled with `(setq gnus-agent
+nil)'. Note that putting (gnus-agentize) in ~/.gnus is not needed any
+more.
** gnus-summary-line-format
This change was made to avoid conflict with the standard binding of
`back-to-indentation', which is also useful in message mode.
+** Bug fixes.
