Well, originally i just wrote that thing because i needed it, without thinking
about any licenses. I put it under the gpl because Domenico Andreoli (added to
the Cc line), who builds the curl package for debian, encouraged me to do so.
I personally think that the gpl is ok, others might think different...

But i don't want to start arguing about the best license or editor
or whatever. There has already too much bandwidth been wasted about this.
Every little child knows that vi is the best editor and gpl the best
license, so let's get back to coding. ;-)))

In order to allow you to view my excellent code ;-)) i have built a new
package, that is under no license at all (i originally published the thing
on freshmeat as "public domain"). See

Bye,
Georg
