having proper licensing is that it protects the code itself as free
software. The X.Org preferred license says you can do whatever you
want but it comes with the obligation of letting others do whatever
they want as well.

I have just added copyright statement and update accordingly COPYING
file, and committed it to my personal repository[0]. Let me know if
that's ok and I will push it to the main repository now that I have the
permissions to do so.

Great, just one nit, looking at the xserver which has had to solve
this issue in the past, the Copyright word should appear for each
copyright holder, even if it is the same year.<br>
<br>
For example:<br>
<blockquote>Copyright © 2008 Red Hat, Inc<br>
Copyright © 2008 George Sapountzis <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:gsap7@yahoo.gr"><gsap7@yahoo.gr></a><br>
</blockquote>
With that fixed,<br>

Thanks, this will formalize credit to the authors and protect free
software.<br>
