Quoting Paul Reiber (reiber at gmail.com):

It's in the _root_.  In big, friendly capital letters.

What more did you need, Paul?  For the file to smear its body with clue
musk and do the clue mating dance during clue mating season?

None of the system software has been changed, no.  If you'd _bothered_ 
to follow what we're doing, you'd know that.

Every other change is, or bloody well better be, in the RCS history.

Except, of course, for (some of) the most recent RCS history that was
in those three entire subtrees I mentioned, that some person with shell 
access nuked in the recent past (the ones I restored from backup).

And, don't forget to be just like Paul, and give fsck-all attention to
the matter of where and when people actually find that data.  ;->
