The recent flurry of concern over the effects of the US adoption of the
Bern convention has caused be to wonder if the new modular GNU General
Public Licence could be applied to documents; and if not, would the GNUrus
at FSF be willing to publish a modified version (the GNU General Document
Licence ?) for that purpose?

The goal would be to make it possible to include a simple notice in e-mail,
network news postings, and other small electronic documents which would
provide a clear indication of re-distribution, storage, and use rights
of the recipient.  (See examples in headers and signature.  Either should
suffice.)
