Thanks, yes, you definitely need an ack, especially from folks who have
their copyright on the files :/

My personal preference for the license was expressed clearly when the
code was written and it is GPL-only. Felix, if you prefer the clean up
I'm happy to ack, but I see no reason to downgrade the license at
vendor's request.
