Anyone want to maintain gnus-bonus-el? Miscellaneous add-ons for Gnus
Anyone want to maintain the gnus-bonus-el package?
I'm officially maintaining the `gnus-bonus-el' package because I
inherited it with emacs-goodies-el a long time ago. But I don't use
gnus and it's nearly impossible for me to sort out the bugs.
Description: Miscellaneous add-ons for Gnus
This package contains a few Emacs-Lisp files, obtained from various
sources, including the gnu.emacs.sources newsgroup and a few
websites, that provide various functions to Gnus, the Emacs mail and
news reader.
.
This package contains:
gnus-eyecandy - enhance the group buffer by adding icons.
gnus-filterhist - add a buffer which display the message filtering
gnus-junk - semi-automatic replies to junk e-mails;
gnus-pers - an alternative to gnus-posting-styles.
message-x - customizable completion in message headers;
nnir - searchable mail backend;
nnnil - empty, read-only backend;
nntodo - manage to-do items;
spam-stat - spam-detector based on statistics.
Anyone want to maintain it?
They could either take it over completely and separately into their own
source package, or I could simply add their name to the Alioth project:
https://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-goodies-el/
where they could commit changes and let me worry about releases.
To be honest, I once coaxed Jérôme Marant into doing this, but he
doesn't really have time for this so I would let him off the hook.
An alternative for me is to simply abandon gnus-bonus-el and purge it
from the emacs-goodies-el package.
Thanks,
