27 | That is so. Have fun (FWIW, I have done some rewriting on them - they are | |
28 | now in Perl, but still need some work...) | |

53 | ||
54 | Certainly, it would be an honour to have it included in the Debian | |
55 | distribution so I hereby release ken into the public domain. | |

65 | Dear Edward, | |
66 | You have my permission to put the ky00te filter into the GNU GPL | |
67 | license. (Though the license will be far longer than the program itself!) | |
