Comment | For software manuals and other documentation, it is important to use a
license permitting free redistribution and updating, so that when a free program is changed, the documentation can be updated as well. On the other hand, for documents that express your personal views, feelings or experiences, it is more appropriate to use a license permitting only verbatim copying. Here is sample text for such a license permitting verbatim copying only. This is just the license text itself. For a complete sample document, see the previous sections. @copying This document is a sample for allowing verbatim copying only.

“Our intention in using the phrase ‘verbatim copying in any medium’ is not to require retention of page headings and footers or other formatting features. Retention of weblinks in both hyperlinked and non-hyperlinked media (as notes or some other form of printed URL in non-HTML media) is required”.
