* Changes in summary and article mode
+** Gnus now supports sticky article buffers. Those are article buffers
+that are not reused when you select another article. *Note Sticky
+Articles::.
+
** International host names (IDNA) can now be decoded inside article bodies
using `W i' (`gnus-summary-idna-message'). This requires that GNU Libidn
-(<http://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/>) has been installed.
+(`http://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/') has been installed.
+
+** The non-ASCII group names handling has been much improved. The back
+ends that fully support non-ASCII group names are now `nntp', `nnml',
+and `nnrss'. Also the agent, the cache, and the marks features work
+with those back ends. *Note Non-ASCII Group Names::.
** Gnus now displays DNS master files sent as text/dns using dns-mode.
** You can replace MIME parts with external bodies. See
`gnus-mime-replace-part' and `gnus-article-replace-part'. *Note MIME
-Commands::, *Note Using MIME::.
+Commands::, *note Using MIME::.
** The option `mm-fill-flowed' can be used to disable treatment of
format=flowed messages. Also, flowed text is disabled when sending
`message-fill-column'. *Note Message Headers: (message)Various Message
Variables.
+** You can now store signature files in a special directory named
+`message-signature-directory'.
+
+** The option `message-citation-line-format' controls the format of the
+"Whomever writes:" line. You need to set
+`message-citation-line-function' to
+`message-insert-formated-citation-line' as well.

* Changes in back ends
** The nnml back end allows other compression programs beside `gzip' for
compressed message files. *Note Mail Spool::.
+** The nnml back end supports group compaction.
+
+This feature, accessible via the functions `gnus-group-compact-group'
+(`G z' in the group buffer) and `gnus-server-compact-server' (`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).
