* Changes in Oort Gnus
+** Better handling of Microsoft citation styles
+
+Gnus now tries to recognize the mangled header block that some Microsoft
+mailers use to indicate that the rest of the message is a citation, even
+though it is not quoted in any way. The variable
+`gnus-cite-unsightly-citation-regexp' matches the start of these
+citations.
+
+** gnus-article-skip-boring
+
+If you set `gnus-article-skip-boring' to t, then Gnus will not scroll
+down to show you a page that contains only boring text, which by
+default means cited text and signature. You can customize what is
+skippable using `gnus-article-boring-faces'.
+
+This feature is especially useful if you read many articles that
+consist of a little new content at the top with a long, untrimmed
+message cited below.
+
+** The format spec %C for positioning point has changed to %*.
+
** The new variable `gnus-parameters' can be used to set group parameters.
Earlier this was done only via `G p' (or `G c'), which stored the
** Gnus supports Cancel Locks in News.
-This means a header "Cancel-Lock" is inserted in news posting. It is
-used to determine if you wrote a article or not (for
-cancelling/superseding). The behaviour can be changed by customizing
-`message-insert-canlock'.
+This means a header "Cancel-Lock" is inserted in news posting. It is
+used to determine if you wrote a article or not (for cancelling and
+superseding). Gnus generates a random password string the first time
+you post a message, and saves it in your ~/.emacs using the Custom
+system. While the variable is called `canlock-password', it is not
+security sensitive data. Publishing your canlock string on the web
+will not allow anyone to be able to anything she could not already do.
+The behaviour can be changed by customizing `message-insert-canlock'.
** Gnus supports server-side mail filtering using Sieve.
