Re: Why I've stopped using ecomplete

What's the copyright status of EUDC?  Would it make sense for
ecomplete to be able to call out to that?

;;; eudc.el --- Emacs Unified Directory Client

mode (I didn't test it):

I guess ecomplete could use eudc.  However, I haven't actually heard
much talk about people using it, so I don't know how much help that
would be...

Basic HTTP auth?  I guess nnrss could add that; it would just have to
add the basic auth header.  As an interface thing, nnrss could use the
"http://user:password <at> place/file.rss" syntax.

I went to the message in the Message-ID header, and pushed `^'.  It
fetched the parent, and I could `^' up again to the root.

So I seem to be unable to reproduce this bug.

Is it possible that Google is directing you to a German version of
news.google.com that formats stuff differently?

Yes, that seems bad.

You wouldn't want to fix this yourself?  :-)  I doubt I even have gpg
installed here, which makes debugging slighly more tricky.

Looks OK to me.

I could work on this since I use both nnrss and Trac.

I've wondered in the past, but only slightly paid attention to the
relevant discussion:

    Where should I commit changes?  Or, rather, how are they merged
    with EmacsCVS?

(not that I have commit access on gnus…)

Well, life is short, and the number of Free Software projects to work
on is infinite.  But I'm currently doing some rather interesting Gnus
hacking, and I'll have to learn about decorating Gnus buffers anyway
-- so I might end up doing that.

(In case anyone is interested: together with Z. Landau, we're
integrating the Darcs version control system with Gnus.  And in case
anyone is still listening -- any pointers to examples of code that
decorates summary buffers?)

> But that reminds me -- has anybody done any work on dkim?

DomainKeys (the nonstandard ancestor of DKIM) is being deployed by
Gmail and Pobox, which is a significant number of users.  DKIM is
being worked on, but last time I checked the spec had some rather
serious bugs due to the conflicting goals of securing mail and
permitting mailing list exploders to add random crap in messages.

> Or did that go the way of the dodo, too?

The technically correct term is ``the way of USEFOR''.

Both, actually: X-PGP-Signer: in the message buffer, and something
like what I suggested in the Summary buffer.

Ideally, we can work out a behaviour that suits both classes of users.

(OT: PGP signatures are an annoying waste of space.  Getting your key
into the keyservers and connected to the WOT can turn out to be really
handy at some later time.)
