I have used "Source: http://liba52.sourceforge.net"; Old fre form copyright states: "It was downloaded from <http://liba52.sourceforge.net/>." Hence my point is that the DEP-5 version still complies with the Policy. You can view new copyright in dep-5 branch.

That git commit has never been part of a release for distribution.
