1. mmm-rpm.el. It's ~20 lines, and you could consider its contents to be "configuration" instead of a program. Nevertheless, it's all been written by the same guy who never done copyright assignment, so it doesn't seem fair to write "Copyright by Free Software Foundation" on top of it.This can be counted as "trivial" enough not to require copyright paperwork, indeed.
But copyright notices are per-file, right? I expect the build process to be confused.
2. mmm-noweb.el. It's much bigger, and reportedly still used by some people. Unfortunately, the author has passed away 7 years ago, so no real chance of copyright assignment. They are not very essential (we could release one or both separately), but have them to be exceptions would make my life simpler.I wouldn't mind making an exception for this one.
Very good. Do I push the code as is, or do I need to wait for somebody else's blessing, too?
