 \section{GPLv3~\S14: So, When's GPLv4?}
 \label{GPLv3s14}
 % FIXME Say more
 No substantive change has been made in section 14. The wording of the section
 has been revised slightly to make it clearer.
 % FIXME; proxy
 It's unclear when the FSF might consider publishing GPLv4.  However, this
 section makes it clear that the FSF is the sole authority who can decide
 such.
 The main addition to this section allows a third-party proxy to be appointed
 by contributors who wish someone else to make relicensing to new versions of
 GPL when they are released.  This is a ``halfway'' point between using ``-only''
 or ``-or-later'' by consolidating the decision-making on that issue to a
 single authority.
 % FIXME-LATER: better proxy description
 \section{GPLv3~\S15--17: Warranty Disclaimers and Liability Limitation}
 No substantive changes have been made in sections 15 and 16.
 % FIXME: more, plus 17
 % FIXME: Section header needed here about choice of law.
 % FIXME: reword into tutorial
 Some have asked us to address the difficulties of internationalization
