Not only the manual, but Gnus itself. I remember this guy from the university (UiO) when he started working on Gnus. He was a small celebrity among us informatics students, and we all used Emacs and Gnus, of course.

Also gmane. The once popular mailing lists search site.
I discovered X-Face[0] through gmane! Such a blast from the past.

I'd forgotten that! Yeah, I believe Lars also wrote a huge chunk of the current Gnus. I stopped using it a while back and maybe someone else came along and rewrote it again, replacing all his code, but I don't think that's the case.
Gnus was absolutely delightful back in the day. I moved on around the time I had to start writing non-plaintext emails for work reasons. It's also handy to be using the same general email apps and systems as 99.99% of the rest of the world. I still have a soft spot in my heart for it.
PS: Also, I have no idea whatsoever why someone would downvote you for that. Weird.
