+This file describes the CVS branch in which it is maintained.
+Everything below the line is branch-specific.
+________________________________________________________________________
+
+This is the "ttn-vms-21-2-stash" branch.  Its primary purpose is to
+accumulate changes based on the Emacs 21.2 release that support building
+Emacs 21.2 under OpenVMS 7.3-1, aka simply "VMS".  You probably invoked
+the command "cvs checkout -r ttn-vms-21-2-stash", otherwise you wouldn't
+be reading this.
+
+The plans for this branch are to continue updating it with the results
+of a partial (no X) porting effort, until enough changes are included so
+that Emacs 21.2 for VMS can be built "out of the box".  (This file will
+be then amended to indicate no further plans for the branch.)
+
+This branch will not be integrated with the trunk (or with any other
+branch, for that matter).
