   In what I think is the latest INFO-ized version of the ELisp manual, the
   comment/corretion address is incorrect. Maybe we're "not quite up-to-date".
   :-)

   I quote from file elisp-1:

       Mail comments and corrections to: gnu.emacs.lisp.manual@prep.ai.mit.edu

	-Bil Lewis       31-Oct-87
	-Dan LaLiberte 01-Apr-89

   According to the aliases file on rice-chex, it should be

       gnu-manual@prep.ai.mit.edu

Correct.  The prep.ai.mit.edu address forwards to:
	gnu-manual@a.cs.uiuc.edu
which is where the gnu-manual mailing list is kept.

Both addresses end up trading messages (a.k.a. articles) with the
USENET newsgroup:
	gnu.emacs.lisp.manual
which is where I expect the confusion came from.

We do not plan to add the address:
	gnu.emacs.lisp.manual@prep.ai.mit.edu
as an alias for gnu-manual@a.cs.uiuc.edu, but will get the lisp
manual text corrected to mention both the mailing list and the USENET
newsgroup.
