But the OPL *does* restrict you.  It says that unmodified AND MODIFIED
versions (where "modified" explicitly includes translations) have to
include the paragraph I quoted before.  You released a modified
version (as defined by the OPL), but omitted that paragraph.  Nothing
you have posted to this list has included a single syllable of
explanation of this.
