I think you have misunderstood. If you don't have a license text then there is no permission to distribute the document at all. You need to include a notice about GFDL licensing, and the text of the GFDL. What you can omit is cover texts and invariant sections, in manuals of under 400 pages that are not published by the FSF on paper. -- Joseph S. Myers jos...@codesourcery.com
