Free Software Foundation, Inc 362292c692 Relevant text from FSF's "Opinion on Additional Terms" from circa 2006-07-27
I (Bradley M. Kuhn) carefully went through FSF's "Opinion on Additional
Terms", which appears to have been published on Wednesday 2 August 2006 (a
few days after the second GPLv2 discussion published on Thursday 27 July
2006), and merged in any relevant text and descriptions that might be of use
in this tutorial.

The raw material used for this commit can be found here:
    http://gplv3.fsf.org/opinions-draft-2.html
Specifically, a copy of the LaTeX sources are here:
    http://gplv3.fsf.org/additional-terms-dd2.tex

As I merged in this text, I added FIXME's where it seemed the text was
incomplete or referred to parts of GPLv3 draft text that disappeared in later
versions.
