Re: New Emacs facilities from Gnus

[Richard Stallman]

    We don't want to remove any file in the standalone Gnus
    distribution/repository.  Richard's request is to install the general
    purpose facilities that come from Gnus in a more suitable place,
    instead of emacs/lisp/gnus/.

That's part of it.  The crucial point is that Gnus developers
should stop pre-empting the decisions about what packages to install
in Emacs by putting them into Gnus.  They should raise these
questions here, and we should discuss them and decide about those
packages.

If we decide against a package, then the Gnus developers could add
code to work with it, but should not install it in Gnus.
