-Note at times you may find newer directories on the server with limited
-permissions.  These represent snapshots that have not yet been verified
-as correct, or are known to be incorrect.
-
-When a particular snapshot is ready for public consumption the directory
-permissions are relaxed, the LATEST-IS- file is updated and a message is
-sent to the gcc list.
-
-Using a snapshot before it's officially made available is an unwise thing
-to do since it may become impossible to update to an official snapshot.
-
-The "gcc_latest_snapshot" tag has been moved.  You can use
-cvs update -rgcc_latest_snapshot to update your CVS tree to the latest
-official snapshot.
+When a particular snapshot is ready for public consumption the LATEST-IS-
+file is updated and a message is sent to the gcc list.  Please do not use
+a snapshot before it has been announced that way.
