I think it's easiest if we all just give the copyright of the changes we
make (at least in the short term while we're not completely rewriting the
whole thing!) to SICS.  I'm not sure if you're allowed to give someone
else the copyright on a work without their permission.  I can't see an
obvious reason why not, but there may be one.  The easiest thing to do
seems to be to get the OK from Adam for us to give SICS the copyright for
any minor changes we make.

How does that sound Adam?
