Why? It's in the repository in all source files and the readme already. There is a copyright notice at the end of --help.

@5chdn I know, also, gmcv3 license shows GPL well. I recommend to sync printing. like parity1.8 way.

This will get messy because GMC is licensed under two different licenses. The copyright notice is sufficient in my eyes.
