I am considering adding PIR translations (and possibly other language
translations) of the OpenGL Programming Guide ("Red Book") sample code
to examples/opengl/ in the Parrot repository. The original C version of
this code is under the seemingly free license at the bottom of this
message. What do I need to do to handle this properly?
My working assumption is that I can copy the SGI license into a file in
the directory named something obvious like "ORIGINAL_LICENSE", and head
each one of my files with a notice that says:
=head1 COPYRIGHT
This file is a translation of sample code Copyright (c) 1993-2003,
Silicon Graphics, Inc. For details of the original code's license,
please see the file ORIGINAL_LICENSE in this directory. This
translation is Copyright (C) 2008 The Perl Foundation.

Would this be acceptable?
