* FIXES FOR EMACS 22.3

Here we list any small fixes that arrived too late for Emacs 22.2, but
that should be installed on the release branch after 22.2 is released.

* DOCUMENTATION

** Check the Emacs Tutorial.

The first line of every tutorial must begin with text ending in a
period (".", ASCII 0x2E) saying "Emacs Tutorial" in the respective
language.  This should be followed by "See end for copying
conditions", likewise in the respective language.

After each file name, on the same line or the following line, come the
names of the people who have checked it.
