Zdenek Kabelac fcbef05aae doc: change fsf address
Hmm rpmlint suggest fsf is using a different address these days,
so lets keep it up-to-date

/*************************** Design Overview ********************************/
/**
* \mainpage LVM library API
*
* The API is designed around the following basic LVM objects:
* 1) Physical Volume (pv_t) 2) Volume Group (vg_t) 3) Logical Volume (lv_t).
*
* The library provides functions to list the objects in a system,
* get and set object properties (such as names, UUIDs, and sizes), as well
* as create/remove objects and perform more complex operations and
* transformations. Each object instance is represented by a handle, and
* handles are passed to and from the functions to perform the operations.
*
* A central object in the library is the Volume Group, represented by the
* VG handle, vg_t. Performing an operation on a PV or LV object first
* requires obtaining a VG handle. Once the vg_t has been obtained, it can
* be used to enumerate the pv_t and lv_t objects within that vg_t. Attributes
* of these objects can then be queried or changed.
*
* A volume group handle may be obtained with read or write permission.
* Any attempt to change a property of a pv_t, vg_t, or lv_t without
* obtaining write permission on the vg_t will fail with EPERM.
*
* An application first opening a VG read-only, then later wanting to change
* a property of an object must first close the VG and re-open with write
* permission. Currently liblvm provides no mechanism to determine whether
* the VG has changed on-disk in between these operations - this is the
* application's responsiblity. One way the application can ensure the VG
* has not changed is to save the "vg_seqno" field after opening the VG with
* READ permission. If the application later needs to modify the VG, it can
* close the VG and re-open with WRITE permission. It should then check
* whether the original "vg_seqno" obtained with READ permission matches
* the new one obtained with WRITE permission.
*/
/**
* Retrieve the library version.
*
* The library version is the same format as the full LVM version.
* The format is as follows:
* LVM_MAJOR.LVM_MINOR.LVM_PATCHLEVEL(LVM_LIBAPI)[-LVM_RELEASE]
* An application wishing to determine compatibility with a particular version
* of the library should check at least the LVM_MAJOR, LVM_MINOR, and
* LVM_LIBAPI numbers. For example, assume the full LVM version is
* 2.02.50(1)-1. The application should verify the "2.02" and the "(1)".
*
* \return A string describing the library version.

* significant way, the LVM_LIBAPI number (included in the library's soname)
* will be incremented.
