Let's take the license statement serious and not confuse users.

As https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html suggests, we replace the postal address with "<http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>" in the mm directory.

Why to change this now? Isn't there a general plan to move to SPDX?

Shouldn't a move to SPDX only be additions to what we currently have? That's at least what the "reuse" project suggests, see https://reuse.software/practices/
with "Don’t remove existing headers, but only add to them."

thanks
