There's your next codename for a project: "BobVila" or just "Vila" :-)

Brings to mind a useless but amusing investigation: how many
chars in the current sources are there remaining, that were
originally typed in by RMS back in the 80s?
Hmm, worryingly on my things to do one day, but for the documentation ... :-)

I think the current documentation by-line:
Richard Stallman, Roland Pesch, Stan Shebs, et al.
is getting a little dated (Stan, I'm not singling you out, even though do currently have third billing). Perhaps it should say ``edited by <doco maintainer> and <GNUPress editor>'' and then list the contributors inside (as with page 3)? I guess I should ask the GNUPress people about this.
