Free Software Foundation, Inc 520451439f Relevant text from FSF's "GPLv3 Second Discussion Draft Rationale", as
published circa late 2006-07, (around time of GPLv3 Second Discussion Draft)

I (Bradley M. Kuhn) carefully went through FSF's "DRM", which appears to have
been published on Thursday 27 July 2006, and merged in any relevant footnotes
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/gpl3-dd1to2-markup-rationale.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.
