Be sure, if you do, to note the licensing issues for all of those who
packages cups-filters for distributions.

And also make sure that nothing which derrives from Mike's code ever
inter-links with anythig which derrives from Daniel's, since the
licenses are incompatible.  (GPL2 vs Apache2).

(As mentor, I advised Daniel that the licence should be compatible with
cups.  He refused.)
