FSF moved a while ago and projects have gradually been changing their pointers
to the new address for a while. This is the bug filed against gnome.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=334745

affects source code headers and about dialog texts

Reproducible: Always

As with the GNOME bug (and some discussion on the xdg list), I'd rather something more permanent than a brick-and-mortar address.  Seems kinda stupid to have to change the license headers of thousands of projects when the FSF decided to get a new office.
Comment 2 Harold Aling 2007-09-23 19:54:03 CEST
The address is still wrong in xfce4-about -> (L)GPL

Current address:
Free Software Foundation
51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor
Boston, MA 02110-1301
USA

Either update or remove the address?
