That's generally fine (maybe a bit old? - of course I don't know which
version you used)

Current citation:

Foundation. http://grass.osgeo.org

In our COPYRIGHT file we state a different address (I guess it will
not be part of the article anyway):
https://grass.osgeo.org/grass70/source/snapshot/COPYING
