Non-free documentation in the Erlang distribution

[Taavi Talvik]

This is clearly Debian problem to align their copyright policy
with IETF RFC copyright policy and they themselves must take
appropriate steps to resolve conflicts.

If necessary repackage Erlang distribution for Debian to comply.

This file is useful (at least for me) as part of Erlang distribution.

best regards,
