 Every nontrivial file needs a license notice as well as the copyright
-notice.  (Without a license notice giving permission to copy and change
-the file
-would make the file non-free.)
-
-   <p>The package itself should contain a full copy of GPL (conventionally in
-a file named <samp><span class="file">COPYING</span></samp>) and the GNU Free 
Documentation License
-(included within your documentation).  If the package contains any files
-distributed under the Lesser GPL, it should contain a full copy of that
-as well (conventionally in a file named <samp><span 
class="file">COPYING.LIB</span></samp>).
-
-   <p>You can get the official versions of these files from three places. 
-You can use whichever is the most convenient for you.
-
-     <ul>
-<li><a href="http://www.gnu.org/licenses/";>http://www.gnu.org/licenses/</a>.
-
-     <li>The directory <samp><span class="file">/gd/gnuorg</span></samp> on 
the host
-<code>fencepost.gnu.org</code>.  (You can ask <a 
href="mailto:address@hidden";>address@hidden</a>
-for an account there if you don't have one).
-
-     <li>The <code>gnulib</code> project on <code>savannah.gnu.org</code>, 
which you
-can access via anonymous CVS.  See
-<a 
href="http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnulib";>http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnulib</a>.
-
-   </ul>
-
-   <p>The official Texinfo sources for the licenses are also available in
-those same places, so you can include them in your documentation.  A
-GFDL-covered manual must include the GFDL in this way.  See <a 
href="/software/texinfo/manual/texinfo/html_node/GNU-Sample-Texts.html#GNU-Sample-Texts">GNU
 Sample Texts</a>, for a full example in a Texinfo manual.
-
-   <p>Typically the license notice for program files (including build scripts,
-configure files and makefiles) should cite the GPL, like this:
-
-   <blockquote>
-This file is part of GNU <var>program</var>
-
-        <p>GNU <var>program</var> is free software; you can redistribute it 
and/or modify
-it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
-the Free Software Foundation; either version 2, or (at your option)
-any later version.
-
-        <p>GNU <var>program</var> is distributed in the hope that it will be 
useful,
-but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
-MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
-GNU General Public License for more details.
-
-        <p>You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
-along with <var>program</var>; see the file COPYING.  If not, write to
-the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor,
-Boston, MA  02110-1301  USA. 
-</blockquote>
-
-   <p>But in a small program which is just a few files, you can use
-this instead:
-
-   <blockquote>
-This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
-it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
-the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
-(at your option) any later version.
-
-        <p>This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
-but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
-MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the

along
-with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc.,
-51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA  02110-1301  USA
-</blockquote>
-
-   <p>Documentation files should have license notices also.  Manuals should
-use the GNU Free Documentation License.  Here is an example of the
-license notice to use after the copyright notice.  Please adjust the
-list of invariant sections as appropriate for your manual.  (If there
-are none, then say &ldquo;with no invariant sections&rdquo;.)  See <a 
href="/software/texinfo/manual/texinfo/html_node/GNU-Sample-Texts.html#GNU-Sample-Texts">GNU
 Sample Texts</a>, for a full example in a Texinfo manual.
-
-<pre class="smallexample">     Permission is granted to copy, distribute 
and/or modify this document
-     under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or
-     any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with the
-     Invariant Sections being "GNU General Public License", with the
-     Front-Cover Texts being ``A GNU Manual,'' and with the Back-Cover Texts
-     as in (a) below.  A copy of the license is included in the section
-     entitled "GNU Free Documentation License".
-     
-     (a) The FSF's Back-Cover Text is: ``You are free to copy and modify
-     this GNU Manual. Buying copies from GNU Press supports the FSF in
-     developing GNU and promoting software freedom.''
-</pre>
-   <p>If the FSF does not publish this manual on paper, then omit the last
-sentence in (a) that talks about copies from GNU Press.  If the FSF is
-not the copyright holder, then replace &lsquo;<samp><span 
class="samp">FSF</span></samp>&rsquo; with the appropriate
-name.
-
-   <p>See <a 
href="http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl-howto.html";>http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl-howto.html</a>
 for more advice
-about how to use the GNU FDL.
-
-   <p>If the manual is over 400 pages, or if the FSF thinks it might be a good
-choice for publishing on paper, then please include our standard
-invariant section which explains the importance of free documentation. 
-Write to <a href="mailto:address@hidden";>address@hidden</a> to get a copy of 
this section.
-
-   <p>Note that when you distribute several manuals together in one software
-package, their on-line forms can share a single copy of the GFDL (see
-section 6).  However, the printed (&lsquo;<samp><span 
class="samp">.dvi</span></samp>&rsquo;) forms should each
-contain a copy of the GFDL, unless they are set up to be printed
-and published only together.  Therefore, it is usually simplest to
-include the GFDL in each manual.
-
-   <p>Small supporting files, short manuals (under 300 lines long) and rough
-documentation (README files, INSTALL files, etc) can use a simple
-all-permissive license like this one:
-
-<pre class="smallexample">     Copying and distribution of this file, with or 
without modification,
-     are permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright
-     notice and this notice are preserved.
-</pre>
-   <p>If your package distributes Autoconf macros that are intended to be
-used (hence distributed) by third-party packages under possibly
-incompatible licenses, you may also use the above all-permissive
-license for these macros.
+notice.  (Without a license notice giving permission to copy and
+change the file, the file is non-free.)
 
-   <p>If you would like help with license issues or with using the GFDL,
-please contact <a href="mailto:address@hidden";>address@hidden</a>.
+   <p>The package itself should contain a full copy of GPL (conventionally

+(included within your documentation).  If the package contains any

+
+<p>Documentation files should have license notices also.  Manuals should
+use the GNU Free Documentation License.  Following is an example of the
+license notice to use after the copyright line(s) using all the
+features of the GFDL.
+
+<pre class="smallexample">     Permission is granted to copy, distribute 
and/or modify this document
+     under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or
+     any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with the
+     Invariant Sections being ``GNU General Public License'', with the
+     Front-Cover Texts being ``A GNU Manual,'' and with the Back-Cover Texts
+     as in (a) below.  A copy of the license is included in the section
+     entitled ``GNU Free Documentation License''.
+     
+     (a) The FSF's Back-Cover Text is: ``You are free to copy and modify
+     this GNU Manual.  Buying copies from GNU Press supports the FSF in
+     developing GNU and promoting software freedom.''
+</pre>
+   <p>If the FSF does not publish this manual on paper, then omit the last
+sentence in (a) that talks about copies from GNU Press.  If the FSF is
+not the copyright holder, then replace &lsquo;<samp><span 
class="samp">FSF</span></samp>&rsquo; with the appropriate
+name.
+
+   <p>Please adjust the list of invariant sections as appropriate for your
+manual.  If there are none, then say &ldquo;with no Invariant Sections&rdquo;. 
+If your manual is not published by the FSF, and under 400 pages, you
+can omit both cover texts and the inclusion of the GPL.
+
+   <p>See <a 
href="/software/texinfo/manual/texinfo/html_node/GNU-Sample-Texts.html#GNU-Sample-Texts">GNU
 Sample Texts</a>, for a full example in a
+Texinfo manual, and see
+<a 
href="http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl-howto.html";>http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl-howto.html</a>
 for more advice about
+how to use the GNU FDL.
+
+   <p>If the manual is over 400 pages, or if the FSF thinks it might be a good
+choice for publishing on paper, then please include our standard
+invariant section which explains the importance of free documentation. 
+Write to <a href="mailto:address@hidden";>address@hidden</a> to get a copy of 
this section.
+
+   <p>When you distribute several manuals together in one software package,
+their on-line forms can share a single copy of the GFDL (see
+section&nbsp;6).  However, the printed (&lsquo;<samp><span 
class="samp">.dvi</span></samp>&rsquo;, &lsquo;<samp><span 
class="samp">.pdf</span></samp>&rsquo;,
+<small class="dots">...</small>) forms should each contain a copy of the GFDL, 
unless they are
+set up to be printed and published only together.  Therefore, it is
+usually simplest to include the GFDL in each manual.

+<p>Small supporting files, short manuals (under 300 lines long) and rough
+documentation (README files, INSTALL files, etc) can use a simple
+all-permissive license like this one:
+
+<pre class="smallexample">     Copying and distribution of this file, with or 
without modification,
+     are permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright
+     notice and this notice are preserved.
+</pre>
+   <p>If your package distributes Autoconf macros that are intended to be
+used (hence distributed) by third-party packages under possibly
+incompatible licenses, you may also use the above all-permissive
+license for these macros.
+
+   <p>If you would like help with license issues or with using the GFDL,
+please contact <a href="mailto:address@hidden";>address@hidden</a>.
