are found, to prevent mail configurations from silently breaking.

** Message mode is now the default mode for composing mail.
The default for `mail-user-agent' is now message-user-agent, so the
C-x m (`compose-mail') command uses Message mode instead of Mail mode.
Message mode has been included in Emacs, as part of the Gnus package,
for several years. It provides several features that are absent in
Mail mode, such as MIME handling.
*** If the user has not customized mail-user-agent, `compose-mail'
checks for Mail mode customizations, and issues a warning if these

unaware that their mail configuration has changed.

* New Modes and Packages in Emacs 23.2
** CEDET (the Collection of Emacs Development Tools) is now in Emacs.
This is a collection of packages to aid with using Emacs as an IDE
(integrated development environment):
*** The Semantic package allows the use of parsers to intelligently
edit and navigate source code. Parsers for C/C++, Java, Javascript,
and several other languages are included by default, and Semantic can
also interface with external tools such as GNU Global and GNU Idutils.
To enable Semantic, use the global minor mode `semantic-mode'.
See the Semantic manual for details.
*** EDE (Emacs Development Environment) is a package for managing code
projects, including features such as automatic Makefile generation.
To enable EDE, use the minor mode `global-ede-mode'.
See the EDE manual for details.
*** SRecode is a library for recoding Semantic tags back into source
code. It is currently used by some parts of Semantic and EDE; in the
future, it may be used for code generation features.
*** The EIEIO library implements a subset of the Common Lisp Object
System (CLOS). It is used by the other CEDET packages.
** mpc.el is a front end for the Music Player Daemon. Run it with M-x mpc.
** htmlfontify.el turns a fontified Emacs buffer into an HTML page.
** FIXME CEDET
** js.el is a new major mode for JavaScript files.
