bkuhn	79c5b890eb8e	9 years ago	Consolidate copyright notices into single place. Consolidate copyright notices into single place. Historically, this project used (more-or-less) a file-by-file copyright inventory. This commit ends that practice. The project now has a single toplevel copyright inventory, stored exclusively in comprehensive-gpl-guide.tex (so that it appears also in compiled versions of the Guide as well). The side-effect of this commit is that the parts may no longer be easily publishable separably without (at least) the additional work of copyright notice reconstruction. This may in particular create a challenge for the FSF, who has historically selectively published sections of this Guide as materials for its CLE classes. However, without this change, this Guide will eventually suffer from the inherent problems in maintaining file-by-file copyright inventory. Circumstances simply dictate a single, top-level copyright and license notice for the entire Guide. In addition to consolidation of copyright notices, I've also herein updated my historical copyright notices to properly credit me for my own work done in 2003 through 2005. I've also updated the license notice to reflect the changes made by the previous commit and related issues.
bkuhn	ce9168a9af5b	9 years ago	Citations of third-party works in appendix only. Citations of third-party works in appendix only. As alluded to in 2ea19b71d4a917babb29024f06acabfe73309f40 's commit message on 2014-12-17 19:52:15 -0500, keeping any information on a part-by-part basis is difficult and error-prone, since there exists no reliable way to auto-generate such information accurately. Therefore, citations to third-party works, in addition to remaining fully documented in the commit log as they always have been, are now placed in specifically one location in the body of the text itself: a single appendix specifically designed for that purpose. In this manner, contributors have no house-keeping work regarding citations. Contributors need only list third party works and links in one place: third-party-citations.tex. Documentation in CONTRIBUTING.md for making contributions of third-party works is left as a TODO.
