commit 30bd6d1e53fbc31ef3431893e4db3efe9ad799ee
Author: Stefano Lattarini <address@hidden>
Date:   Wed Dec 14 21:14:04 2011 +0100

    readme: reference webpages for automake mailing lists
    
    * README: Rationalize and reorganize the (brief) description of
    the automake mailing lists.   In particular, instead of suggesting
    the reader to write to the `-request' addresses to subscribe to
    mailing lists, point him to the relevant webpages, where he can
    also subscribe via a web form.

commit acd3ff403ae131a7882fb8a38402f519463291c1
Author: Stefano Lattarini <address@hidden>
Date:   Wed Dec 14 21:10:20 2011 +0100

    readme: update advice about testsuite execution
    
    * README: Now that the automake testsuite uses the parallel-tests
    driver, there is no need for the user to capture the stdout of
    "make check" to determine which tests have failed: a detailed log
    is automatically saved into the `tests/test-suite.log' file.
    Since we are at it, improve the wording by dropping an extra
    "please".

commit ccbb437e8102c4cf3779aaef9dc3e06364c4aa02
Author: Stefano Lattarini <address@hidden>
Date:   Wed Dec 14 20:53:10 2011 +0100

    readme: don't reference the old homepage at sources.redhat.com
    
    * README: Don't reference the old homepage at sources.redhat.com,
    which is no longer active; reference the homepage on www.gnu.org
    instead.  See also automake bug#10157 and bug#10248.
    * tests/README: Likewise, and remove related extra-pedantic advice
    about copyright papers for test cases (we'll ask for those papers
    explicitly when we think they are warranted).
