In GNU Emacs 19.25.1 of Thu Jun  2 1994 on penelope (sparc-sun-sunos4.1.3C)

This is a request really.  I think it would be very useful if .../etc/NEWS
was written in Outline mode.  At the moment it is sort-of done that way,
though the top-level headers of the form "Changes in Emacs 19.xx" are not
distinguishable as such.

What is needed is that every header is placed at a level one below that
used at present, and the new top-level header be "Changes ...".

So I request that in future, the format is something like:

* Changes in Emacs 19.xx

** foo

** bar

** Fubar mode

*** and so on for specifically for Fubar mode...

** lo

and maybe even a "Hey Emacs, this is -*- Outline -*- mode." as the first
line?

Thanks, Si.
