+# Questions
+
+
+## Q3: Have you done any other projects using EIEIO and/or defstruct?
+
+
+### "Right, EBDB is super deep into EIEIO, and was kind of written as a project for learning it, and the new gnus-search library is a more restrained usage.  The search engines are defclasses, and much of the code is shared, which works quite well."
+
+
+## Q2: Is there may activity on maintenance of gnus today? (and is Lars involved/aware of this work?)
+
+
+### "Yes, there's still development going on. I don't think Lars is very focused on Gnus right now, but I run all changes by him first.  He fixes bugs, but as far as I know, I'm the only one adding features right now, which is a terrifying thought."
+
+
+## Q1: How much of this 90's funny code :) can be replaced and how much will have to stay forever?
+
+
+### Eventually I think we can get most of it out of there. I was
+
+
+### happy to be able to replace obarrays-as-hashtables with real
+
+
+### hashtables, though that was a very painful process
