Important: CVS move of preview-latex into AUCTeX completed.

Dear preview-latex developers and users,

like announced previously, preview-latex has been moved into the
AUCTeX CVS archive.  preview-latex 0.9 was the last version released
from Sourceforge.  It will take some time to reflect this change on
web site and similar: I think we should have a short blurb on the
AUCTeX web site showing off the functionality, and a somewhat longer
web site with screen shots that gets referenced, but that is also in
the AUCTeX design.  I will then let the web site at Sourceforge
redirect to this page.

Since the move is now completed, also for dvipng, I will shortly give
notice to SourceForge about this move to make sure we are not being in
conflict with their policies.  The ideal solution I would want to have
is to have the preview-latex site and pages at Sourceforge basically
point to AUCTeX.  I'll see what parts would be reasonable to shut down
there completely, and what parts of download area and CVS would
remain, partly for archival reasons.

This also means that it is perfectly feasible for previous
preview-latex developers and combined preview-latex/AUCTeX developers
to request the copyright assignment forms from the FSF, as previously
discussed.  Please use the appended form to do so, requiring a form
for the AUCTeX project, and using preview/preview.el and similar file
names for the files you touched.

People with a copyright assignment in place for AUCTeX that have _not_
previously worked on preview-latex don't need to hand in any _new_
request if they now want to start working on it: preview-latex is now
a part of AUCTeX and work commencing _now_ on it is covered by AUCTeX
copyright assignments.

Those that have previously worked on preview-latex, however, should
now file an assignment for AUCTeX mentioning the preview-latex files
they touched.

Please tell me if there are any problems with that process for you.

David
