I'm using lynx to read /usr/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/common/qpl-license.html

There is 6.3. No 6c. Probably a problem with the html.
Oh. No. The html source says:-
``<OL STYLE="list-style-type: lower-alpha;">'' So, the problem is
with lynx.

Choice of Law

   This license is governed by the Laws of Norway. Disputes shall be
   settled by Oslo City Court.

At the top, this says:-

I'm not familiar with Norway, but are Amsterdam and Oslo same? 

Hope we are discussing the same document.
