6.6.2 Canonical License Sources ¶

You can get the official versions of these files from several places. You can use whichever is the most convenient for you.

https://www.gnu.org/licenses/.
The gnulib project on savannah.gnu.org, which you can access via anonymous Git or CVS. See https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnulib.

The official Texinfo sources for the licenses are also available in those same places, so you can include them in your documentation. A GFDL-covered manual should include the GFDL in this way. See GNU Sample Texts in Texinfo, for a full example in a Texinfo manual.
