The "lisp" directory is a directory for lisp files of the standard emacs distribution, while the "site-lisp" directory is for optional elisp packages. So one should install additional elisp packages into the "site-lisp" directory. However, "lisp" might be better choice in the case of gnus, because gnus seems to be a part of standard emacs distribution, and because their files are located in the "lisp" directory. -- Seiji
