Well, "human-readable" does not imply that it is written by hand (at =
least not=20
in our project): Our INSTALL file was an old version of the standard GNU =

installation guide from autotools. autogen.sh automagically copies an=20
up-to-date version of that file into our tree, so it will be in any=20
distribution. It makes sense for several reasons: Automatically =
generated=20
files should never be under version control. Furthermore, the =
instructions=20
should fit to the autotools versions used to generate the distribution. =
This=20
was not the case before. And a final note: People intending to build =
things=20
right from SF's CVS are really supposed to know the GNU INSTALL file by=20
heart, so there is no need to keep it.

Cheers,
   S.
