Thank you for your feedback. I'm about to add following texts explaining
Gnus versions to the package description:
Note: This package contains beta version from No Gnus series. Users
of GNU Emacs 23 are better served by Gnus 5.13 included in GNU Emacs
23 packages.
and a following chapter to README.Debian:
With GNU Emacs 23 it is better to use Gnus 5.13 from Emacs itself,
which is final release bundled in Emacs from this beta series ('No
Gnus'). This beta series will eventually be released also as
standalone Gnus 5.12, and is suitable to be used with XEmacs, older
than version 23 of GNU Emacs, and possibly other Emacs versions.
If you think that these texts still leave some open questions, or could
be clarified in some way, I'll appreciate your comments.
