Not necessarily. Maybe, the user has written himself a .dcl mode which is rather limited. Such a user most probably is interested in the NEWS of an official dcl mode -- but he will never see it, because he something as follows in .emacs (like me): (setq auto-mode-alist (append (list '("\\.dcl$" . dtd-mode) '("\\.mod$" . dtd-mode)) auto-mode-alist)) > i've removed the blurb, but am leaving in the prolog blurb > since that has already been processed (if someone deletes > it at some point, no worries).
