Hi!

I've walked throught he various license related files
 common_copyright_quick.xml
 common_copyright_opensuse.xml common_copyright_sle.xml common_legal.xml
 common_gplv2_i.xml common_gfdl_i.xml

in our internal and external repositories and edited them to 
look more appealing. At least more appealing to me. 
I am half lawyer half developer, so your milage may vary.

* The full texts of GFDL and GPL now appear exactly as written by the FSF.
  There were some minor edits, that we are not entitled to do.

* The copyright line of the GFDL boiler plate now says 
  "(C) 2006-2010 Novell Inc. and contributors. All rights reserved."
  instead of several other forms, none of which honored any non-Novell
  contributors. (The term 'All rights reserved' is a nice-to-have for
  layers, but has no factual effect -- it bows to the terms of the GFDL.)

* Call the licenses GPLv2, GFDLv2.1 instead just GPL and GFDL.

Dinar, I also touched some files under */ru/, where I understood the english.
Please let me know if I messed up something. Hope not :-)

        cheers,
                JW-
