Minor glitches with the top copyright and license files.
I will correct them, if nobody has objections.
* Text files should be formatted in 80 columns for reading pleasure.
GPL.TXT is not, so I will put in the plan text version with fsf
original 80 columns formatting.
AUTHORS needs some manual formatting.
* COPYRIGHT could be improved slightly:
My plan is to replace the paragraph:
"Individual copyrights upheld by original authors and not
superceded by the GRASS GPL Copyright. Users must abide by applicable
copyrights for individual programs where noted."
with:
"Parts of GRASS are not copyright by the GRASS development team.
The original authors hold the copyright and you have to abide
to their licensing terms where noted."
I could also add a clarification sentence:
"(Keep in mind that code linking into GRASS can only be
distributed if compatible with the GPL.)"
For redundancy we should also add the Hannover
Internet addess the file.
