[PATCH] Re: Remove Bitkeeper documentation from Linux tree

[Thunder from the hill]

Hi,

Sorry, I haven't checked email for a while. Putting this into an
external readme file might still leave some people complaining,
but if you wish I could do that either.
The last version was more or less a cut and paste from Larry, this one is 
a little edited...

Regards,
Thunder

+    Also notice that BitKeeper  is not free software. You may use it
+    for free, subject  to the licensing rules  you can download from
+    <URL:http://www.bitkeeper.com/manpages/bk-blk-1.html>, but it is
+    not open source.  If you feel  strongly about 100% free software

+    style patches.  It is explicitly not a  requirement that you use
+    BitKeeper to do  kernel development,  people may choose whatever
+    tool works best for them.
