-;; The `webjump-sample-sites' constant mostly contains sites that are expected
-;; to be generally useful to Emacs users or that have some sort of query which
-;; can be coded in WebJump.  There are two main goals of this sample site list:
-;; (1) demonstrate WebJump capabilities and usage; (2) provide definitions for
-;; many popular sites so that people don't have to reinvent the wheel.  A few
-;; assorted other sites have been thrown in on a whim.  No commercial sites are
-;; included unless they provide a free, generally-useful service.  Inclusion of
-;; a site does not represent an endorsement.  Please contact the maintainer
-;; with change requests.
+;; The `webjump-sample-sites' variable mostly contains some site entries that
+;; are expected to be generally relevant to many users, but excluding
+;; those that the GNU project would not want to recommend.
 
 ;; The `browse-url' package is used to submit URLs to the browser, so any
 ;; browser-specific configuration should be done there.
 
-;; WebJump inherits a small amount code from my `altavista.el' package, and is
-;; intended to obsolete that package.
