Huh. I thought that was cleared up a long time ago... I remember when
Zooko first added that code, and glyph explained the copyright policy,
and IIRC Zooko agreed to it. I don't know why it's never been
changed. Glyph? :)

You still have a copyright on that code, and you can distribute it
however you want, of course. It's just non-mutual copyright, as glyph
has the same rights as you (If you agree, anyway).
