Thank you!

Now the only issue that remains, AFAICT, is the different key bindings
for outline-related commands in NEWES, caused by the fact that
emacs-news-mode activates outline-minor-mode.  Could we perhaps solve
this by having emacs-news-mode be derived from outline-mode, not from
text-mode?  If not, why not?
