+Foundation, but the instance of code that it refers to (the Linux
+kernel) is copyrighted by me and others who actually wrote it.

+Also note that the only valid version of the GPL as far as the kernel is
+concerned is _this_ particular version of the license (ie v2, not v2.2
+or v3.x or whatever), unless explicitly otherwise stated.
