Hash: SHA1
The porting from my recent branch-1_4 activity begins.
The GNU Coding Standards recommend against non-ASCII encodings except in
ChangeLog (and by implication, THANKS). At any rate, UTF-8 is more
portable these days than ISO-8859 or Latin1, in case we get future
contributors that cannot be spelled appropriately in those encodings.
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Character-Set
I also saw some other cruft worth updating. Sorry about all the raw email
addresses in the patch.
2006-06-10 Eric Blake <address@hidden>
* README-alpha: Update web address.
* README: Likewise. Change encoding to ASCII. Remove old advice
about cygwin. Document bootstrapping dependency.
* AUTHORS: Update from branch-1_4.
* THANKS: Likewise. Change encoding to UTF-8.
* BACKLOG: Delete. This file is too old and unmaintained to be
worthwhile.
* ChangeLog: Change encoding to UTF-8.
