I found a couple of "README" files where I hadn't done this, and fixed them. However, after looking through quite a few others, I didn't find any that needed them. There are some files that shouldn't have them: files generated by the programs and the `cwebmac.tex' files from the CWEB distribution. If you found any other files that should have them, but don't, would you please tell me which ones? The generated files contain information from data providers, and are protected by their own copyrights. When I get a chance, I will add code to the various programs to write comments to the generated files containing the copyright notices for the programs themselves. > In addition, please include a copy of the plain text version of the > GPL, available from http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt, into a file > named "COPYING".

I've printed out the written permission I got from the director of the institute. In my request, I specifically mentioned that I wanted to have the projected hosted at Savannah. Please let me know if there's anything else I need to do.
