Subject: Maintenance: minor COPYING/CREDITS updates (#2383)
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=765c7f4e7fa45ce87134b4a38ad175db4bda06dd;p=thirdparty%2Fsquid.git

Maintenance: minor COPYING/CREDITS updates (#2383)

The current official GPLv2 text has been modified to
remove the FSF street address. Bring our GPL copy
up to date with the official GPLv2 license document.

Also, libltdl license has similar changes. Update our
CREDITS file to match the v2.5.3+ libltdl/ldtl.h import.

There are no legal implications from this change.
