+========================================================================
+
+The Vendor Branch
+
+    Original version of Gnus.
+    Each version has a tag of the form "qgnus-0_XY" or "gnus-5_X_Y".
+
+    The branch tag for the vendor branch is "larsi".
+
+The Main Trunk
+
+    Semi-gnus was developed on the main trunk until current branch-
+    management plan (See "Public Branches" below) was introduced.
+    Each version has a tag of the form "gnus-6_N2_N3". (0 < N2 < 5)
+
+Public Branches
+
+    Current main stream of Semi-gnus development.
+
+    [Goal and policy of public branches here ???]
+
+    Each branch has a tag of the form "gnus-N1_N2" and each version
+    has a tag of the form "gnus-N1_N2_N3".
+
+    N1, N2, and N3 are changed by the following rules.
+
+    N1 will be incremented if any fundamental architecture change is
+    made.  Of cource, in this case, N2 and N3 will be reset to zero.
+
+    N2 will be incremented and new branch will be made if any "major
+    changes" are made.  "major changes" include API changes, major
+    version up of original Gnus, or synchronization with original Gnus
+    which requires design decision.
+
+    N3 will be incremented if some "minor changes" are made.  "minor
+    changes" include small bug fix or synchronization with original Gnus
+    without design decision.
+
+    The following branch tags are currently available.
+
+	for-semi-1_5	Semi-gnus for SEMI 1.5 API
+	for-semi-1_6	Semi-gnus for SEMI 1.6 API
+	gnus-6_5	Semi-gnus for SEMI 1.7 API
+	gnus-6_6	Semi-gnus for SEMI 1.8, FLIM 1.7 API (stable)
+	gnus-6_7	Semi-gnus for SEMI 1.8, FLIM 1.7 API (develop)
+	gnus-6_8	Semi-gnus for SEMI 1.8, FLIM 1.8 API
+
+Personal Branches
+
+    Some Semi-gnus developers have their own "personal branches".
+    Each personal branch may have its own goal and/or policy.
+    See README.${tag} (if exists) for information of each branch.
+
+    The following branch tags are curretly available.
