 \section{Gentium collection background}
 
-This package uses the original fonts GentiumPlus to make the regular and
-italic styles and GentiumBasic to make the bold and bold italic styles,
-and combines them into one \TeX-world family.
+This package uses the original GentiumPlus 6.101 fonts (families
+GentiumPlus and GentiumBookPlus).  These two families together can be
+considered as one super-family containing four different weights.
 
 GentiumPlus is a serif family designed to support a wide range of Latin,
-Greek and Cyrillic characters.  It currently includes just the regular
-and italic style, as well as smallcaps.
+Greek and Cyrillic characters.
 
-GentiumBasic has just the Latin characters and it even lacks some Latin
-characters found in GentiumPlus.  Therefore, the bold and bold italic
-styles of this package support fewer languages than the regular and
-italic styles (e.g.\ Czech and Slovak are not fully
-supported). Moreover, GentiumBasic has no smallcaps and no kerning
-pairs.  When and if \sil\ releases bold and bold italic GentiumPlus
-fonts, we will switch to those, of course.
-
 This package does not use the Berry fontname scheme, but longer names
 similar to those of Latin Modern, etc.  One disadvantage of this choice
 is that you cannot use the additional font selection commands provided
