Research direction

The issue specifies two files: src/client/spindle_api/spindle.h and src/include/spindle_launch.h. Open each file, locate the address line for the Free Software Foundation, and replace the old address with the new one. Verify the change by checking that the updated address matches exactly: '51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA'. No compilation or testing is required; the work is complete when both files are updated.

Description

Please change the address listed for the Free Software Foundation in src/client/spindle_api/spindle.h and src/include/spindle_launch.h. Currently it lists

59 Temple
Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA

And needs to be

51 Franklin
Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA

Thanks,
Vinay
