     Cool, applied (added the missing part of the log, for the patch.)

     I capitalized this.

Sorry for not noticising these.

     I removed the ???free??? and the reference to proprietary competitors.

Fair enough.  The blurb on the website mentions them by name. I decided to drop
the names.  If you want to omit any mention altogether, I don't have any 
objection.

     It???s actually GPLv2+ since the source files do not specify the version.

It kind of does indirectly. It says "Under GPL - See the file COPYING" and
COPYING contains the text for v2.   I thought it safer to assume v2 only.
