Follow-up Comment #36, task #15078 (project administration):

> I believe the current code status... was fixed according to the comments?

src/tests/spd_cancel_long_message.c says it's GPLv2-only. Please check other
files as well and contact their copyright holders.

Some files like doc/texinfo.tex are under the GPLv3+; you should provide a
copy of the GPLv3 in your tarball.

Not a critical issue, but notices in your tarball provide 3 different postal
addresses of the FSF, two of them are obsolete; I'd recommend replacing them
all with the URL.

> Well, there is a difference between "any cost" and "not bothering
maintainers with code they do not actually maintain".

I believe maintainers have to bother themselves with all code in their
tarballs; if they don't, they may end up distributing proprietary software and
even having their users sued for illegally distributing proprietary software.
