NEWS seems a bad place to put such announcements, since it is very out
of date (not updated for GCC 2.95). OK to commit the following patch
to remove the post-EGCS-1.1 items from NEWS, make its de facto status
clear, add one item to the GCC 2.95 features list that was in NEWS as
of 2.95 and create a GCC 3.0 features list (deliberately not linked to
from anywhere) with the other two items (a features list will be
needed anyway, people may want to start filling it out)?
Notes:
1. As before, C++ might get its own features web page. As cp/NEWS is
being kept up to date, such a page needn't be started yet, and C++
news items might better go to cp/NEWS. Similarly, Fortran news is
in the Texinfo manual.
2. Actually filling out the release directory is a job for
Mark/Gerald/whoever, but a features list is needed for people to
add items to (rather than to the old NEWS file).
3. This does *not* fix other/895; there's still an overlap for the
EGCS releases between NEWS and the release notes, and the status of
other NEWS files should be clearly defined as well. However, if
this is approved it may reduce the importance of other/895.
