Ah. I'd only seen that text under the ‘VerbatimCopying’ tag in [1]. > The notice you are pointing to in your footnotes is: "Everyone is > permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license > document, but changing it is not allowed." Yeah, which is different (as discussed in my initial post to this thread). With the FSF already using both VerbatimCopying and GNUVerbatim for [1], perhaps GPLVerbatim would be a better choice for “Everyone is permitted to copy…”.
