ee-gnus

ee-gnus - summary and topic mode for Gnus

Description

This extension provides the integration with gnus package. It extracts group names from gnus internals and organizes them under different categories. This extension can replace the gnus topic mode.

Also ee could be used to implement summary mode for articles, where data from articles (author, date, subject, etc.) will be used as categories in the ee views.
