Hi all!

Ok, GPLv3 is out. Karl Berry the upstream of texinfo switched to GPLv3.
No I am planning to upload a new texinfo package but have the following
questions:
- anything I have to take care for regarding the GPLv3? What was the
stance of debian-legal?
- GPLv3 is AFAIS not contained in /usr/share/common-licenses. Will it
be included there soon, or should I include the full text in
debian/copyright?

Thanks a lot and all the best

Norbert
