That was just boilerplate I copied from another texinfo manual at the
time (1995?)
I haven't had time to maintain emacs-w3 in years unfortunately - I'm
not even sure I have the ssh key to get into savannah CVS any more.
It was certainly not my intention to prevent modification - I always
hated writing documentation the most and would have loved to have
someone else do it.
