102 * FIXES FOR EMACS 22.3
104 Here we list any small fixes that arrived too late for Emacs 22.2, but
105 that should be installed on the release branch after 22.2 is released.
109 ** Check the Emacs Tutorial.
111 The first line of every tutorial must begin with text ending in a
112 period (".", ASCII 0x2E) saying "Emacs Tutorial" in the respective
113 language. This should be followed by "See end for copying
114 conditions", likewise in the respective language.
116 After each file name, on the same line or the following line, come the
117 names of the people who have checked it.
