In the site is written:
----------------------------------------
It's free!
    Org is 
[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-source_software] 
[open source software]]

, it is free, like Emacs. 
------------------------------------------

I think that this is enough. 

If we think that an explicit link to the GPL is necessary
we can link:

[[http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html][free]] like Emacs

or 

[[http://www.gnu.org/licenses/licenses.html#GPL][free (GPL)]] like 

[[http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/][Emacs]]


Interestingly enough also the GNU Emacs web page does NOT have 
an *explicit* link to the licence of Emacs itself
neither to "free software" ;-)

cheers,
Giovanni

Nice discovery! But I guess that is because it'd be recursive. :-)

Thanks too. Seeing the progress.

What about to link directly to the license text applying?
Which should provide for the case, people looking for org-mode don't have
much time to spent for this or another reason.

Anyway, understood it's an org-mode for the relaxed. :)

There is a link to it in the "contributing to Org" section.
