commit a083c87efa42342bce612f63adc1ff47d989d18e
Author: G. Branden Robinson <[email protected]>
AuthorDate: Thu Dec 18 09:48:22 2025 -0600
COPYING, LICENSES: Refresh GPLv3 text.
* The GPL text now uses the HTTPS URL schema instead of HTTP, and
alters the location of the "why-not-lgpl" link.
* LICENSES: Update date of GPL text retrieval. Drop sentence, already
inaccurate, about FSF office postal address being present in license
text--it wasn't, and isn't. Relocate "further information" sentence
accordingly. Update "copyleft" and FSF primary URLs to use HTTPS
instead of HTTP.
