Well, I am happy with this solution, so I am going to remove these
parts from
the copyright notice. The copyright notice will now read:
@quotation

under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.1 or
any later version published by the Free Software Foundation.
@end quotation
Any objections?
Thanks.
