It really pains me to have to do this, but UniSys has given us no

a license is rquired to create or distribute products incorporating
such capability." we must remove this support from XEmacs, and I am
requesting that all of you who've downloaded GifReader please delete
it.
Why can't you leave the support in even if we can't distribute an XEmacs
with it?
