Sorry, and thanks for putting me right again and again because I'm
sloppy with the terms. I mean the license of course! (It is more or
less that you should perform an s/copyright/license/ before reading my
mail ;-))

I don't think we have done that either, if not by misstake. There are
some files involved.

So all info files can be untouched and we can still go GPLv3 or later
with the rest?

OK. I'll have a closer look. Among these we have the TUTORIALS which
according to Jerrys GPLv3-analysis has the "old FSF documentation
license". Any problem with that?

I haven't checked. I'll do that.

I'll try to summarize what we have been doing soon. Most easy cases
are handled but some tricky cases remain. Cases which might not be
tricky at all if you know whar you are doing. Developers can feel free
to clone the GPLv3 repo in order to inspect or contribute.
Yours
