+# docbook_expandLicenses.sh -- This function modifies the final
+# DocBook instance to add license information. We are doing this way
+# because using XInclude doesn't work and we want to reuse license
+# information in all documents. So, if we cannot link the files, we
+# modify the final instance and append the license information to it.
+# Later, to reuse translation messages, the locale functionality takes
+# care of merging po files related to licenses into documentation po
+# file so changes made to licenses translations will also be available
+# to documentation manuals in different languages.
