[Reiner Steib]

Dear Bug Team!

I got a report from an XEmacs user telling me that mailing with Gnus
is so complicated and it's documentation is horrible.  It turned out
that he was referring to gnus-mime-en and tm-en:

,----[ (info "(gnus-mime-en)Top") ]
| This file documents gnus-mime, a MIME extension for Gnus.
`----

,----[ (info "(gnus-mime-en)Introduction") ]
| *gnus-mime* is a MIME (*Note (tm-en)MIME::) extender for Gnus (*Note
| (gnus)::) using tm (*Note (tm-en)tm-kernel::).
| 
| *[Notice]*
| 
|      gnus-mime is for only Gnus.  Please use tm-gnus (*Note
|      (tm-gnus_en)::) for GNUS.
`----

Is there any reason to include gnus-mime-en.info at all?  Gnus can
handle MIME out of the box since Gnus 5.8 so I can hardly see any
reason to include gnus-mime-*.info and related files.

If you cannot remove this stuff, please at least place a *very strong*
note in (gnus-mime-en)Top and in (gnus-mime-en)Introduction, saying
that all this is obsolete.

Bye, Reiner.
