                     24: I think Allbery's suggestion is a good one.  So please add this text
                     25: in a suitable place.  Please don't put it in the GPL itself; that
                     26: should be the same as the GPL everywhere else.  Putting it in the
                     27: README and/or the documentation would be a good idea.

                     31: Our position on the use of Readline through a shared-library linking
                     32: mechanism is that there is no legal difference between shared-library
                     33: linking and static linking--either kind of linking combines various
                     34: modules into a single larger work.  The conditions for using Readline
                     35: in a larger work are stated in section 3 of the GNU GPL.
