[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

I want to make a release soon.
The preceding release (gzip-1.6) was 2.5 years ago.

Here's a small admin change I've just pushed.
I suspect I'm the only one who noticed, because it
is triggered only via "make distcheck" when also
using automake built from automake.git's master branch.
