Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/28.0.50 (gnu/linux) |
>> Just tell me if it is a joke that gnus is described this way.
>> gnus 5.13 built-in Identifying spam
> The description comes from spam.el:
> ./spam.el:1:;;; spam.el --- Identifying spam
But why is it put under the name "gnus"?
>> Another issue, Org is described as:
>> org 9.3 built-in Export Framework for Org Mode
> This description comes from ox.el
> ./ox.el:1:;;; ox.el --- Export Framework for Org Mode [...]
Similarly, why is it put under the name "org"?

I don't understand this code enough to give much guidance, I'm afraid.
