-* Changes in No Gnus
-
-** 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
-`~/News/marks' directory (perhaps selectively), so that flags are
-read from your `~/.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.
-
-** The nntp back end stores article marks in `~/News/marks'.
-
-The directory can be changed using the (customizable) variable
-`nntp-marks-directory', and marks can be disabled using the (back
-end) variable `nntp-marks-is-evil'. The advantage of this is that
-you can copy `~/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 `~/News/marks' has priority over the same
-data in `~/.newsrc.eld'.
-
-** Picons can be displayed right from the textual address, see
-`gnus-picon-style'. *Note Picons::.
-
-** You can import and export your RSS subscriptions from OPML files.
-*Note RSS::.
-
-** The option `mm-fill-flowed' can be used to disable treatment of
-format=flowed messages. Also, flowed text is disabled when sending
-inline PGP signed messages.
-
-** You can now drag and drop attachments to the Message buffer. See
-`mml-dnd-protocol-alist' and `mml-dnd-attach-options'. *Note MIME:
-(message)MIME.
-
-** The option `message-yank-empty-prefix' now controls how empty lines
-are prefixed in cited text. *Note Insertion Variables:
-(message)Insertion Variables.
-
-** ANSI SGR control sequences can be transformed using `W A'.
-
-ANSI sequences are used in some Chinese hierarchies for highlighting
-articles (`gnus-article-treat-ansi-sequences').
-
-** 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.
-
-** Gnus includes an Emacs Lisp SASL library.
-
-This provides a clean API to SASL mechanisms from within Emacs. The
-user visible aspects of this, compared to the earlier situation,
-include support for DIGEST-MD5 and NTLM.
-
-** ManageSieve connections uses the SASL library by default.
-
-The primary change this brings is support for DIGEST-MD5 and NTLM,
-when the server supports it.
-
-** Gnus includes a password cache mechanism in password.el.
-
-It is enabled by default (see `password-cache'), with a short timeout
-of 16 seconds (see `password-cache-expiry'). If PGG is used as the
-PGP back end, the PGP passphrase is managed by this mechanism.
-Passwords for ManageSieve connections are managed by this mechanism,
-after querying the user about whether to do so.
-
-** IMAP identity (RFC 2971) is supported.
+* New features
-By default, Gnus does not send any information about itself, but you
-can customize it using the variable `nnimap-id'.
+** If you have the "tnef" program installed, Gnus will display ms-tnef
+ files, aka "winmail.dat".
-** The `all.SCORE' file can be edited from the group buffer using `W e'.
-
-** Gnus now MIME decodes articles even when they lack "MIME-Version"
-header. This changes the default of `gnus-article-loose-mime'.
-
-** Gnus now views DNS master files sent as text/dns using dns-mode.
-
-** 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.
-
-** Gnus supports new limiting commands in the Summary buffer: `/ r'
-(`gnus-summary-limit-to-replied') and `/ R'
-(`gnus-summary-limit-to-recipient'). *Note Limiting::.
-
-** Gnus supports a new sort command in the Summary buffer: `C-c C-s C-t'
-(`gnus-summary-sort-by-recipient'). *Note Summary Sorting::.
-
-** The `nnrss' back end now supports multilingual text. Non-ASCII group
-names for the `nnrss' groups are also supported. *Note RSS::.
-
-** URLs inside OpenPGP: headers are retrieved and imported to your PGP
-key ring when you click on them.
-
-** Gnus uses narrowing to hide headers in Message buffers. The
-`References' header is hidden by default. To make all headers
-visible, use `(setq message-hidden-headers nil)'.
-
-** `gnus-decay-scores' can be a regexp matching score files. For
-example, set it to `\\.ADAPT\\'' and only adaptive score files will
-be decayed. *Note Score Decays::.
-
-** S/MIME now features LDAP user certificate searches. You need to
-configure the server in `smime-ldap-host-list'.
-
-** Strings prefixing to the `To' and `Newsgroup' headers in summary
-lines when using `gnus-ignored-from-addresses' can be customized with
-`gnus-summary-to-prefix' and `gnus-summary-newsgroup-prefix'. *Note
-To From Newsgroups::.
-
-** You can replace MIME parts with external bodies. See
-`gnus-mime-replace-part' and `gnus-article-replace-part'. *Note MIME
-Commands::, *Note Using MIME::.
-
-** Lisp files are now installed in .../site-lisp/gnus/ by default. It
-defaulted to .../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 `make remove-installed-shadows'.
-
-** Retrieving mail with POP3 is supported over SSL/TLS and with StartTLS.
-
-** Having edited the select-method for the foreign server in the server
-buffer is immediately reflected to the subscription of the groups
-which use the server in question. For instance, if you change
-`nntp-via-address' into `bar.example.com' from `foo.example.com',
-Gnus will connect to the news host by way of the intermediate host
-`bar.example.com' from next time.
-
-** You can change the location of XEmacs' toolbars in Gnus buffers. See
-`gnus-use-toolbar' and `message-use-toolbar'.
