Details:

In looking at the new project registration page
(https://savannah.gnu.org/register/), there is a paragraph about the software
license having to be compatible with the GPL.

Per rms, there should be a similar paragraph about the documentation having
to be compatible with the "current version of the GFDL or later".  Ok?

Here's what he wrote (to savannah-hackers-private originally, I think):
> We need not bother the existing non-GNU packages with GPL'd manuals.
> What we need to do is make sure there will not be any additional
> ones in the future.  This means, first of all, putting a clear statement
> in the policies so that new projects will know that manuals must have
> licenses compatible with "GFDL version N or later".


Thanks,
karl
