   If someone is looking for a license, most people will not
   expect to find it in a file named COPYING.

For our programs, and programs licensed under a GNU license that is
not true.  We have been recommending the practise since we wrote the
GNU GPL.  If you wish to keep both, it is not much work.

See https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html for the recommended
practise.
