Comment(by gnu):

 Need wording?  It's easy to steal from any GNU program.  From GDB,
 modified for Sugar:

  Sugar version xxxx.
  Copyright (C) 2008 One Laptop Per Child.
  Sugar is free software, covered by the GNU General Public License, and
 you are
  welcome to change it and/or distribute copies of it under certain
 conditions.
  Start "Browse" and open "file:///usr/share/licenses/common-licenses/GPL"
 for details.
  There is absolutely no warranty for Sugar.

 When translating that string, they can point to the Spanish translation of
 the GPL, if someone fixes #6928 too.
