[GPL] Can we update the address of FSF address, and change the organization for deviated work?
We are currently working on the project, openprops https://github.com/zanata/openprops/
Basically, it is just extension to .properties of OpenJDK, whose license is
http://openjdk.java.net/legal/gplv2+ce.html their FSF address have not been updated
What should we do for license file for openprops?
Shall we copy the Openjdk license file as-is, or we just update the FSF address, or we can use our name in the "Classpath" Exception?
The proposed diff is https://github.com/zanata/openprops/pull/1/files

Keep the license file as-is. If you want, you can submit a bug report upstream to OpenJDK.
or we can use our name in the "Classpath" Exception?
No, you have to keep the wording of the exception as-is. The exception originates with Sun/Oracle (as initial copyright holder). You could supplement the exception, but the way it's worded that isn't necessary.
