 INTRODUCTION
 
-    This is GNU Mailman, a mailing list management system distributed
-    under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).  The name
-    of this software is spelled "Mailman" with a leading capital `M'
-    but with a lower case second `m'.  Any other spelling is
-    incorrect.
-
-    Mailman is written primarily in Python, a free object-oriented
-    scripting language.  There is some ANSI C code for security
-    purposes.
-
-    Mailman was originally developed by John Viega.  Subsequent
-    development (through version 1.0b3) was by Ken Manheimer.  Further
-    work towards the 1.0 final release was a group effort, with the
-    core contributors being: Barry Warsaw, Ken Manheimer, Scott
-    Cotton, Harald Meland, and John Viega.  Version 1.0 and beyond
-    have been primarily maintained by Barry Warsaw with contributions
-    from many; see the ACKNOWLEDGMENTS file for details.  Jeremy
