Personally, I would not like to have my name removed from author. I
spent quite a bit of time/work on my libraries. I would also like to
allow others to edit/improve as needed. We should go by preference.

We could add a note in our files that states our preference. I can
place a note in my files that says "Please feel free to update &
improve, however I prefer that Author does not change". If no note,
default to ZLIB. Make a new file, change author, and acknowledge old
author.

Jallib releases should contain files with notes that say not to update
or improve code. As a group, we could vote on this point. We could
make up a list of acceptable notes for files to be included in the
jallib pack.

I have allowed you Seb to make recent changes to my files, I thank you
for not changing Author.

Matt.
