scaffold/b-0.mes

I think I lost a patch, I'm pretty sure I did gc.scm and BOOSTRAP
before...it was a pretty hacking frenzy this week.

doc/ANNOUNCE-*.  These were all emailed to public lists (guix-devel,
guile-user etc).  Would it be OK to mention that somewhere?  I moved
them to doc/announce and added this local README:

                                                              -*- org -*-

OK.

Ah yes, I need a license for the talk.  Hmm, think GFDL 1.3+ would be
best.

Added a * Legalese as suggested in the Org mode manual and regenerated,
so visible everywhere.

Ah, sure.  It was imported as a convenience -- I chose to remove this
imported directory.
