 #If you use this module your typeset document may look different
 #when you process it with future LaTeX versions, because fixltx2e may provide
 #more bugfixes in future versions.
+#Note that the recent LaTeX kernel (2015/01/01) includes fixltx2e,
+#so the fixltx2e module becomes obsolete as of TeXLive 2015.
