Subject: [PATCH v2 2/6] LICENSES: Replace the obsolete address of the FSF in the GPL-2.0
Date: Mon, 21 Jul 2025 12:15:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250721101537.276552-3-thuth@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250721101537.276552-1-thuth@redhat.com>
From: Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com>
The FSF does not reside in the Franklin street anymore. Let's update
the address with the link to their website, as suggested in the latest
revisions of their GPL-2.0 license:
