- I believe that Don Knuth as part of his will with TeX wrote that after
- his death, one (1!) alteration of TeX must be made: the version number
- bumped from whatever `approximation' of `pi' it has to a new version
- numberer `$\pi$' -- which then will be the final version of TeX.
- So we haven't quite reached TeX V$\pi$ yet.
