- in the --help output, I suggest including the ed home page, and
  punctuation.  Thus, ending with something like this:
Report bugs to <address@hidden>.
Ed home page: http://www.gnu.org/software/ed/

Done.

- Likewise, it is good to mention the mailing list and web page in the
  README.

Done, but I think duplicate information is an opportunity for future stale information. :-)

- also in the --help output, it is traditional to use STRING instead of
  <string>.

It may be traditional, but I think <string> is better. See `gcc --help'.

- in ed.texinfo, the @contents line should be moved after the
  @end titlepage.

Done.

- in ed.texinfo, in the --loose-exit description, I suggest adding a
  sentence like this:
 This can be useful when ed is invoked as the editor for crontab.

Done.

- in NEWS, the mention of --no-pause should be removed.

Done.

Regards,
Antonio.
