However, in fact virtually none of that file comes from the original PPP code released by CMU. This series solves the problem by moving the code that I originally wrote to a new header file with my copyright on it. While we're at it, I also change the license on some files where I had put an ANU copyright notice originally to have my copyright instead. I have an acknowledgement in writing from September 2002 from ANU that they do not claim any copyright in this code.
