I've cleaned it up for the next RC, I'm now closing this issue.

Package: emacs

The temporary NEWS markup is still in place in the RC.
It should have been removed, together with a final check that everything
that should be has been documented, and any potential reordering of NEWS
topics.

Also, the final top-level ChangeLog and ChangeLog.2 entries are a bit
messy. The "25.1 released" should be in ChangeLog (at the top), not
ChangeLog.2. Both files have some ";;" entries that should not be there.
"Bump version for RC" should probably just be removed.

(Please review admin/release-process and admin/make-tarball.txt for other
items that may need doing.)
