10 If you are going to attribute and copyright (a good idea), please add at
11 least some indication of licensing terms as well. GPL (2? 2+?), BSD,
12 whatever, including a link to the standard license where appropriate.
13
14 If you don't, it puts anyone using it in potential legal difficulty. Not
15 that you'd bother or that it'd be more than trivial for something like
16 this anyway, but if it's worth putting the copyright and attribution line
17 in there, it's worth a license line as well, just to cover the legal bases.
18
19 You may also wish to include a contact link, email or web site
20 (presumably with contact info thereon) or the like. After all, anyone
21 caring about the copyright or author probably has a reason they are
22 caring, which may well include a desire to get in contact with you, either
23 to comment, or to ask for further permissions.
