Maybe. If the examples are small and not "legally significant" then you can include them without the copyright. Although acknowledging their source is proper. If however the examples are legally significant then the copyright notice should be included, and you should make it clear as to exactly which parts of the ld.text documentation are covered by the license. The definition of legally significant can be found in section 6.2 of the GNU Maintainers guidelines, and details about accepting non-FSF copyrighted code can be found in section 6.4.1: https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/maintain.html#Copying-from-Other-Packages > Nick, Your email address is "nickc@*c*redhat.com" in the manual. oops! Thanks for letting me know. I have checked in a small patch to correct this. Cheers Nick
