I had a look at it. I'm afraid that it's not quite enough yet. The headers of source files would have to have the same exception in them, too. Also, FSF has moved some time ago. You should update the address in the LICENSE and LICENSE.GPL file and the source file headers. Here's what's needed in the source files: /* * (Copyright information...) * * 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. * * This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but * is provided AS IS, WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied * warranty of MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, and * NON-INFRINGEMENT.
