[PATCH 00/12] Replace FSF postal address with licenses URL
Posted by Sean Wei 5 months ago 
The boiler-plate licence headers in several parts of QEMU still contain
the obsolete “51 Franklin Street" contact line.

The Free Software Foundation now recommends using the canonical URL:

    https://www.gnu.org/licenses/


This patch updates those headers. The patches are comment-only;
no source code changes.

Please review and let me know if any patch should be split, squashed
or dropped. This is my first patch for the QEMU project, so any
feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thanks to Thomas Huth <thuth@redhat.com> for proposing this issue and
outlining the steps, and to Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange@redhat.com>
for the clarifications.

It's rather https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/2974 instead, but 
anyway, thanks for tackling this!

I'll queue the patches (except the one that updates linux-headers) for my 
next pull request.
