I will be taking over as maintainer of the its package from Giles Heywood.
The code was originally written while he was working at Commerzbank. I have
added the header below to the top of the R source file to indicate the
changes in the copyrights for the code. The package was originally released
under GPL2. I have no experience with copyright issues, and would
appreciate it if someone who does would kindly indicate whether the header
below is correct and conforms with normal practice.
Thanks in advance,
Whit Armstrong
