Doc patches


From: Martin Grabmueller
Subject: Doc patches
Date: Wed, 20 Dec 2000 15:36:47 +0100

Hello,

I have looked through the top-level doc files of guile-core, mainly to
correct references to CVS repository locations, mailing lists etc.,
and corrected everything I found.

I attached the output of `cvs diff -u'.  Please tell me if you would
like to get patches in another format.

Thx,
  'mgrabmue
