-@section Dependencies
-
-The Gnus distribution contains a lot of libraries that have been written
-for Gnus and used intensively for Gnus.  But many of those libraries are
-useful on their own.  E.g., other Emacs Lisp packages might use the
-@acronym{MIME} library @xref{Top, ,Top, emacs-mime, The Emacs MIME
-Manual}.

-@code{rfc1843-gnus-setup} seem to be useful only for Gnus.  Maybe this
-function should be relocated to remove dependencies on Gnus.  Other
-minor dependencies: @code{gnus-newsgroup-name} could be eliminated by
-using an optional argument to @code{rfc1843-decode-article-body}.

-@subsection message
-
-All message composition from Gnus (both mail and news) takes place in
-Message mode buffers.  Message mode is intended to be a replacement for
-Emacs mail mode.  There should be no Gnus dependencies in
-@file{message.el}.  Alas it is not anymore.  Patches and suggestions to
-remove the dependencies are welcome.
-
-@c message.el requires nnheader which requires gnus-util.
-
-@subsection Emacs @acronym{MIME}
-
-The files @file{mml*.el} and @file{mm-*.el} provide @acronym{MIME}
-functionality for Emacs.
-
-@acronym{MML} (@acronym{MIME} Meta Language) is supposed to be
-independent from Gnus.  Alas it is not anymore.  Patches and suggestions
-to remove the dependencies are welcome.
-
-@subsection Gnus backends
-
-The files @file{nn*.el} provide functionality for accessing NNTP
-(@file{nntp.el}), IMAP (@file{nnimap.el}) and several other Mail back
-ends (probably @file{nnml.el}, @file{nnfolder.el} and
-@file{nnmaildir.el} are the most widely used mail back ends).
-
-@c mm-uu requires nnheader which requires gnus-util.  message.el also
-@c requires nnheader.
