That's not the issue; it's obeying the GPL that's annoying within the
constraints of conventional paper-and-ink publishing. Both v2 and v3
require the source code (HTML or DocBook or LaTeX or what have you) to
be distributed "on a medium customarily used for software interchange",
which nowadays means a CD or DVD.
