Actually, I am NOT the copyright holder. There was some confusion
a couple years back and I was under the impression that there could
be a joint copyright ownership for Squid. However, the University
of California is the only copyright holder.
But there is some good news. UCSD has agreed to assign its copyright
of Squid to the Free Software Foundation. Currently, UCSD is being
paranoid about which parts of "Squid" it has the copyright to, and which
parts belong to others. So I am supposed to clarify that and make it
more obvious which is which.

Anyone want to ask Richard Stallman for advice?
