I just can't locate copyright statement anywhere within the package --
only license file (MPL 1.1/GPL 2.0/LGPL 2.1)
is copyright assumed to belong to upstream author? what years then
should be mentioned?

I have another "wishful thinking" idea for build machines to float.

architecture glooble. I don't personally have a globle machine. To
