+*** The Gnus distribution no longer bundles Custom and Widget.
If your Emacs doesn't come with these libraries, fetch them from
<URL:http://www.dina.kvl.dk/~abraham/custom/>. You also then need to
add the following to the lisp/dgnushack.el file:
*** New command to translate M******** sm*rtq**t*s into proper text
-- `W d'.
+*** For easier debugging of nntp, you can set `nntp-record-commands'
+to a non-nil value.
+
+*** nntp now uses ~/.authinfo, a .netrc-like file, for controlling
+where and how to send AUTHINFO to NNTP servers.
+
+*** A command for editing group parameters from the summary buffer
+has been added.
+
+*** A history of where mails have been split is available.
+
+*** A new article date command has been added -- `article-date-iso8601'.
+
+*** Subjects can be simplified when threading by setting
+`gnus-score-thread-simplify'.
+
+*** A new function for citing in Message has been added --
+`message-cite-original-without-signature'.
+
+*** `article-strip-all-blank-lines' -- new article command.
+
+*** A new Message command to kill to the end of the article has
+been added.
+
+*** A minimum adaptive score can be specified by using the
+`gnus-adaptive-word-minimum' variable.
+
+*** The "lapsed date" article header can be kept continually
+updated by the `gnus-start-date-timer' command.
+
+*** Web listserv archives can be read with the nnlistserv backend.
+
+*** Old dejanews archives can now be read by nnweb.

+New functionality for using Gnus as an offline newsreader has been
+added. A plethora of new commands and modes have been added. See
+@pxref{Gnus Unplugged} for the full story.
+
+@item

+before. All Message buffers are now also articles in the @code{nndraft}
+group, which is created automatically.

+values.

+@item
+ You can now post to component group in @code{nnvirtual} groups with
+@kbd{C-u C-c C-c}.
+
+@item
+ @code{nntp-rlogin-program}---new variable to ease customization.
+
+@item
+ @code{C-u C-c C-c} in @code{gnus-article-edit-mode} will now inhibit
+re-highlighting of the article buffer.
+
+@item
+ New element in @code{gnus-boring-article-headers}---@code{long-to}.
+
+@item

+control over simplification.
+
+@item

+limit.

+@kbd{a} forces normal posting method.
+
+@item
+ New command to translate M@item
+@item
+** sm*rtq**t*s into proper text---@kbd{W d}.
+
+@item
+ For easier debugging of @code{nntp}, you can set
+@code{nntp-record-commands} to a non-@code{nil} value.
+
+@item
+ @code{nntp} now uses @file{~/.authinfo}, a @file{.netrc}-like file, for
+controlling where and how to send @sc{authinfo} to @sc{nntp} servers.
+
+@item
+ A command for editing group parameters from the summary buffer
+has been added.
+
+@item
+ A history of where mails have been split is available.
+
+@item
+ A new article date command has been added---@code{article-date-iso8601}.
