this section.

337f2e9044 First pass across to find a repair places that say "GPL" to mean GPLv2.
This text was originally written before GPLv3 existed, and as such it assumes
that "GPL" always means v2.  Herein is the first attempt to rectify that
situation.

756fc5279f Remove unnecessary versions and formats of the case-studiess tutorial material.
After the cherry-picking activity just completed in preceeding commits, the
file in the top-level directory named 'enforcement-case-studies.tex' now
includes a full history of all the improvements, with proper author dates,
names, and emails.

This includes a merger of the old history of
'Case-Studies-Ethics/case-study-ethics.tex', and newer history in
'Case-Studies-Ethics/new-case-study-ethics.tex',

Also removed herein are pdf files for the (new-)case-studies-ethics.tex file
that were apparently inadvertently added to the historical CVS repository.

7f5fc7d7f7 Remove deprecated LaTeX formatting scripts and commands.
These were done by me in 2001 to handle generating HTML, Postscript, and PDF
all from the same LaTeX sources.  Doing this is not as difficult as it once
was, as such, these files are no longer needed to achieve that goal.

However, it's still not automatic, so some additional stuff for formatting to
all types will need to be added later.

daafc75153 Remove unnecessary versions and formats of the gpl-lgpl tutorial material.
After the cherry-picking activity just completed in preceeding commits, the
file in the top-level directory named 'gpl-lgpl.tex' now includes a full
history of all the improvements, with proper author dates, names, and emails.

This includes a merger of the old history of 'GPL-Business/gpl-business.tex',
to the middle-period history in the 'GPL-LGPL/gpl-lgpl.tex', and the final
part of history found in  'GPL-LGPL/new-gpl-lgpl.tex'.

Also removed herein are dvi, pdf, and ps files for the new-gpl-lgpl.tex file
that were apparently inadvertently added to the historical CVS repository.

4aeb4b25b2 compliance-guide.tex was originally downloaded from the following URL:
http://softwarefreedom.org/resources/2008/compliance-guide.tex

Since I am herein committing an Adaptation of this compliance-guide.tex work
(this commit includes a one-line change made from the version as downloaded
above), this is now an Adaptation as defined by CC-By-SA-3.0-Unported §1(a).

I am thus hereby permitted, per CC-By-SA-3.0-Unported §4(b)(ii), to relicense
this work under CC-By-SA-4.0, because CC-By-SA has the same License Elements
as CC-By-SA-3.0-Unported.  (Therefore, in this case, §4(b)(ii) defines the
"Applicable License" as CC-By-SA-4.0.)

Specifically, the following license text appears in compliance-guide.tex:

  Copyright \copyright{} 2008, Software Freedom Law Center.  Licensed
  \href{http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/us/legalcode}{CC-BY-SA
  3.0 unported}.

Here are the actions I took to comply with CC-By-SA-3.0-Unported §4(b)(ii):

  §4(b)(I):   Since the Applicable License is CC-By-SA-4.0, I've now included
              the URI and reference to the copy of CC-By-SA-4.0 in this
              repository as well.

  §4(b)(II):  No additional conditions are imposed.

  §4(b)(III): This term is confusing.  It claims I must "keep intact all
              notices that refer to the Applicable License".  Of course, the
              Applicable License is now the new version of the license, so it
              seems reasonable to interpret this clause as to allow, and
              almost instruct, a change in reference to the 3.0 license to
              the 4.0 license.  However, that's not explicitly allowed for in
              this section, but I can't come to any reasonable interpretation
              of the clause other than updating the notice to refer to the
              new license.

  §4(b)(IV):  No technological measures are imposed.

77f9f55b59 Creative Commons had trailing whitespace on this line.
Generally, Git repositories prefer not to to have text files with trailing
whitespace characters in them.  As such, this commit is applied, even though
it changes the checksum of the canonical license text as downloaded from:
    http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode.txt

However, this appears to be the right thing to do here.
