I have just sent to gnu-emacs-sources/gnu.emacs.sources patches to
make GNUS a hierarchical newsreader.  What I mean by that is that when
you start up GNUS for the first time, rather than showing you all the
newsgroups, it will just show one line for each top-level hierarchy
("soc", "rec", "alt", etc.).  You can then unsubscribe to the whole
hierarchy with one keystroke, or you can type space to "explode" the
hierarchy into all the second-level groups and hierarchies (e.g.
"comp" will explode into "comp.sys", "comp.os", "comp.compilers",
etc.).

I know, according to the MAILINGLISTS file distributed with emacs
18.57, I'm not supposed to send this message, but I doubt they had
info-gnus-english in mind when they wrote that.
