Hello,

I have a very boring thing to report: there is a site posting the documentation for sed without including the license.

https://www.computerhope.com/unix/used.htm

No need to reply, just passing the information along since you might know who to tell it to.

Best,

Nathan

Thank you for reporting this issue.

I will forward it to the licensing people at FSF.

strangely,

they updated/generated the page very recently, but used quite an old version of the manual.

They also claim copyright to material published on their website, and that is clearly not valid for sed's manual.

As this is not a bug, I'm marking this as done, but discussion can continue by replying to this thread.

regards,
