You can get it on the web at
  http://www.cs.ubc.ca/spider/edmonds/gnus-bbdb.el
or you can send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the
following line in the body: get misc gnus-bbdb.el

The current release is 1.19 -- if you get an older one, let me know, as
my RCS files have been a bit out of sync lately.

I'm rather behind and am still running an early 0.9x release of ding.
I'll upgrade to 5.0 RSN, and when I do will be bringing gnus-bbdb up to
date.  Jack's summary of the installation steps to follow was concise
and correct.

The code I got from Sudish that eventually morphed into gnus-bbdb used +
so that stuck (or changed it gratuitously, I forget :).  I've since
tried *, but I find + sticks out a bit better visually, so I've seen no
particular reason to change the default.
