i'm pretty sure i already have that. Here's what i use:
/*
* Aleader, Copyright (C) 2003 Joshua Nathaniel Pritikin
* This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; licensing details
* are available in the file COPYING, found in source distributions.
* Aleader source code is available at <http://why-compete.org>.
*/
Is this insufficient?

COPYING is _already_ in the source distribution. Are you sure
you're looking at aleader-0.9.3.tar.bz2 ?

i don't mind at all. i prefer "GNU/Linux". However,
i just checked and i don't have any references to "Linux"
_or_ "GNU/Linux" on my web site or in my source distribution.
i guess i just wrote "Linux" in my savannah submission
as a careless mistake. (i can re-submit my savannah
application with only this change...)

Yes, i am already familiar with this argument.

Please tell me whether i have to change anything besides
the "Linux"->"GNU/Linux" change in my savannah submission.
Is it really true that i don't have to change anything
on my web site or in my source distribution?
