See the issue as:
- The text of http://www.libreoffice.org/download/license/ reads "LGPLv3 
(or later)"
- The footer of the same page reads "LGPLv3".
- Being different, at least one of them is wrong.

I though LibreOffice was distributed under LGPLv3... the license used 
for distribution of the whole package is not, if I recall correctly, the 
same one as the one used for new contributions.

Then, if we even don't know which license is used for distributing 
LibreOffice, this is rather embarrassing and out of the scope of this 
list... Really, it was a totally straightforward two-words fix and I 
couldn't imagine any kind of discussion on it!

I now reset the Italian translation so that it is equally inconsistent 
as the English version; once this issue is settled, it would be great if 
someone continues this thread and tells us the right phrasing for the 
footer and the page text. We will update the Italian translation 
accordingly.

Regards,
  Andrea.
