I know, but I forget to replace GIF by PNG. I'll correct it.

Firstly, .html file is `XHTML 1.0 Strict'. XHTML 1.0 allows to use
`text/html' mime-type, see W3C XHTML 1.0 TR, section 5.1. So, there are XHTML
stuff.

Secondly, there are the text:

==============================
MPFRCPP: The Multiple Precision Floating-Point Reliable Library C++
Interface

[...]

MPFRCPP copying conditions

[...]

MPFRCPP documentation

==============================

It's not enough?..

COPYING file with GNU FDL will be added.
