I started out with the itwb.4 page, and replaced a few lines of
text, but all the markup, the order of things etc. etc, is from
itwb.4.

So ftwd.4 is indisputably a "derivative work" and therefore i left
the copyrights from the original in.

My own contribution hardly rises to the level of a protectable work,
"mere recitation of facts" do not rise to the "original work"
threshold, so I did not add myself to the copyright.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
