 *** IMPORTANT NEWS FOR ALL AUTHORS OF TEXINFO MANUALS ***
 
 As of version 4.2, Texinfo has a new command @copying to define the
-copyright and copying permissions for a manual.  It's important to
-switch to using it as soon as possible (as in your next release),
-because the historical method of doing copyright permissions using
address@hidden failed to output copyright information in the HTML (or XML)
-formats.  The manual has detailed explanations and examples.  For
-convenience, here's a url to one of the relevant sections:
