[avrdude-dev] [bug #29585] Fix license

[Karl Berry]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #29585 (project avrdude):

Hi Joerg,

The official requirements for savannah hosting, including nongnu.savannah.org,
are at https://savannah.gnu.org/register/requirements.php.  See the last
section.

These requirements haven't changed in this respect since 2003 (to my
knowledge), although I don't find it hard to believe that whoever approved the
project in 2003 didn't do a complete check.

A simple license ... well, the choice is either 1) use the FDL, or
2) abandon copyleft for the documentation.  The only licenses compatible with
the FDL are permissive ones such as public domain (CC zero), Expat, and the
like.

Hope this helps.  Sorry for the extra work being incurred.

Best,
karl
