a new address topic
Hi.
As a contributor of the GNU Scientific Library I usually check its repository.
Recently I noticed some files I wrote were modified.
I looked to the following address
http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/gsl/rng/borosh13.c.diff?r1=1.3&r2=1.4&cvsroot=gsl&f=h
and I discovered what was changed.
The maintainer of the GSL changed the copyright comment of each c and h files because ad you can see the street address of the Free Software Foundation has changed from
675 Mass Ave, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA
to
51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA
Of course there are a lot of c and h files in linux with the old address and I don't say they should be changed right now... I just want to let you know about that.

AFAIK thre were already some patches on LKML about this issue.
