Control: tags -1 patch Please find a patch attached.
The BSD license in common-licenses refers to "the University" and "THE REGENTS", which I have replaced with copyright holder(s), which is the version in use at OSI. I have made that change because I assume that you are not representing any university with your packaging work. The note about upstream's mail does not belong to the copyright file but to README.source, which I have created.
