+%
+% \subsection*{Recto notes}
+%
+% If the package is invoked with the \Lopt{rectonotes} option, then it
+% runs in a complementary mode in which the notes are placed on the
+% recto page (the right-hand one) instead of the verso.  The default
+% |\versolayout| in this case (which of course is really a recto
+% layout) is slightly different, and is based on the preexisting
+% document |\oddsidemargin|.  All the pages in the document (apart
+% from the front page) are then formatted as verso pages, though still
+% only the non-note pages are numbered.
+%
+% In this mode, the `add a note' command is still called
+% |\versonote|.  You may find it convenient to rename that with
+% |\let\rectonote = \versonote| or |\let\sidenote = \versonote|.
+%
 % \subsection*{Notes}
 % \begin{itemize}
 % \item The package uses the |\pdfsavepos| primitive, and so requires
-% \texttt{pdflatex} or \texttt{xelatex} (and \texttt{luatex}?).
+% \texttt{pdflatex}, \texttt{xelatex}, or \texttt{luatex}.
 %
 % \item The notes are handled using the |.aux| file, and so (i) they will
 % only appear on the second and subsequent runs; and (ii) they will be
 % located opposite the position where the |\versonote| macro was
 % called on the \emph{previous} run.
 %
+% \item The package is available on CTAN at
+% \texttt{macros/latex/contrib/versonotes/}.  The source is hosted at
+% \url{https://bitbucket.org/nxg/versonotes}, where you can also find
+% an issues list.
