+       doc: give credit to more of Bison's developers.
+       * doc/bison.texinfo (Introduction): Don't imply that only Robert
+       Corbett, Richard Stallman, and Wilfred Hansen have contributed to
+       Bison.  However, I don't have time to write a full history, so
+       just point readers to THANKS and ChangeLog.

+       doc: document experimental features better.
+       * doc/bison.texinfo (Introduction): Say that IELR(1) and canonical
+       LR(1) are experimental.  Mention Java.  Normally experimental
+       features probably shouldn't be mentioned in the introduction.
+       However, if Bison's limitations to LALR(1), C, and C++ are so
+       important that they should be mentioned here, then it's important
+       to point out that Bison is beginning to escape those limitations.
+       Moreover, these particular experimental features have very little
+       chance of being removed.
+       * src/getargs.c (usage): Say that IELR(1) and canonical LR(1) are
+       experimental.
