Listed address for the Free Software Foundation is out-of-date

[audreytoskin]

This is a very minor issue. But one or a couple places in your repo, the copyright comment at the beginning of a code file mentions getting a copy of the the GPL by sending snail mail to the Free Software Foundation. The FSF address you provide is a little out-of-date, as they've moved from Temple Place to Franklin Street. The current address is here:

Free Software Foundation
51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor
Boston, MA 02110-1335
USA

https://www.fsf.org/about/contact/

Or you could just direct them to the web version instead:

https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.html

Even I only noticed because I'm packaging your extensions for Fedora, and rpmlint detected the old FSF address ;P

Thanks.  I will correct the addresses.

I have updated the copyright statements. If you find anything else let me know. I will leave this issue open until I get the extensions uploaded and reviewed on the ego website. I am curious which extensions are you packaging?

Great, thanks.

I am curious which extensions are you packaging?

Do Not Disturb Button and Activities Configurator. I've liked using these for a little while now, and I thought some GNOME Shell extensions would be a nice place to start when learning about RPM packaging. Also, as I understand it, Max Window Effect is already a feature included in Activities Configurator. I'm considering doing the ones for reloading the Shell or extensions, but it's mostly only useful for extension developers, so I haven't personally needed them yet.

Good luck with your packaging. I am closing this issue.
