- There's a certain application which I'm modifying the code. The
- original author said in the code:
-
- Copyright (C) 1988 Dr. X Y Z
- Permission is granted to modify and re-distribute this code in
- any manner as long as this notice is preserved. All standard
- disclaimers apply.
-
- At this point I want to "modify and re-distribute" the program (it's
- like a complete rewrite). And I want to have my "copyright" without
- violating copyright rules, although mine will be much similar to the
- original one.
