+@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.

@item New packages and libraries within Gnus
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.

+Old intermediate incoming mail files (@file{Incoming*}) are deleted
+after a couple of days, not immediately. @xref{Mail Source

@item Changes in summary and article mode
@itemize @bullet
+
+@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 back ends
@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.
