Re: nndb.el requires tcp

[Richard Stallman]

nndb.el seems to be a part of Gnus.  Is it considered a current
and useful package by the Gnus developers?

Perhaps nndb.el should be marked as obsolete in some way.

Perhaps it could be included in the contrib directory in the Gnus
tarball, and omitted from Emacs.

nndb.el talks to a server called nndb (by John Heideman I believe?),
and I think that piece of Perl code isn't easy to find, anymore.  Is
there anyone actually using this?

What do people think?

Kai
