+\subsection{\class{ltxdoc} us now using new beta version of new \pkg{doc}}
+
+We are now internally using the \pkg{doc} package in version 3 and
+will make that the default version in the Fall release.  For now it
+exists as \pkg{doc-v3beta} and is used internally to format the
+\LaTeX{} sources.  We also now distribute the \texttt{ltxdco.cfg}
+configuration file we use to format them.
