Author of mirror perl package

Hi Lee,
      Thank you for writing the mirror perl package and for making it
available as free software.  I am the maintainer of the Debian mirror
package.  Please find attached Debian's file debian/copyright
distributed and installed on each computer using the Debian mirror
package.

1. Would you like a current email address to be displayed by the Debian
   mirror package?  If so what is it?

2. The Debian package currently displays in file debian/control
   		Homepage: http://www6.uniovi.es/mirror/
   Do you have a preferred homepage or source site for mirror?

This is the Debian prepackaged version of the mirror utility.  
Mirror was written by Lee McLoughlin <lmjm@doc.ic.ac.uk>.

This package was put together by Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@qed.econ.queensu.ca>
from the sources obtained from
	ftp://sunsite.org.uk/packages/mirror/mirror-2.9.tar.gz

The maintainers of this Debian package are:
	1996-2000 Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@debian.org>
	2001-xxxx Ian Maclaine-cross <iml@debian.org>

Some small changes were made for this Debian GNU/Linux release; they are 
fully documented in the file /usr/share/doc/mirror/changelog.Debian.gz. 

The following copyright is provided in the file copyright.html:
   
   Copyright (C) 1990 - 1998 Lee McLoughlin

   Permission to use, copy, and distribute this software and its
   documentation for any purpose with or without fee is hereby granted,
   provided that the above copyright notice appear in all copies and that
   both that copyright notice and this permission notice appear in
   supporting documentation.

   Permission to modify the software is granted, but not the right to
   distribute the modified code. Modifications are to be distributed as
   patches to released version.

   This software is provided "as is" without express or implied warranty.

and the following email [ from which some parts have been omitted ] provides 
further clarification:

I think I got the wording from you!  Or at least some other Debian
package you pointed me to!

The above scheme is OK with me.
