References to my.gnus.org/FAQ

Hi,

there are some references to (dead for some time now)
my.gnus.org as the source of the FAQ and to a rather life-
less repository at Sourceforge in texi/gnus-faq.texi. Any
suggestions on how to clean this up?

Git repository?

Due to a lot of work travel the past year, it's been a long while
since I've brought my installation up to date.  I did see the traffic
about moving from CVS to git but no longer have those messages.  I'll
have to learn to use git to pull down the latest, but before I can
even do that, would someone please give me the server contact info
I'll need?

Thanks,

Sorry my first message got away before including the git command:

   git clone http://git.gnus.org/gnus.git

You will need a recent version of git installed of course.

cd to directory of your choice... the command above will create the
directory ./gnus  and
./gnus/.git/   to initallize a git repo, then download the sources
like before with cvs.

Sorry, just thought that was amusing.

I haven't heard back from Lars, who controls gnus.org, so I can't make
the necessary changes to gnus.org to point people to git.gnus.org.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

I'm in favor of removing those references and pointing people to the
Emacs Wiki and git.gnus.org instead.
