[quote=Prospectus]Effective immediately, Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund has begun
tracking its new target index, the CRSP US Total Market Index, as previously
approved by the Fund’s board of trustees[/quote]

They've been talking about it on bogleheads for months. Seems ok to me, although I must confess I own more of the S&P 500 fund than the total market fund.
