wow -- seems to be trendy these days to come to a common sense on
licensing pre-historical piece of code ;)

Well -- now it is 3 of us capable of maintaining it to differing
degrees... 

+ I will keep our dialog with upstream to craft some testing
battery so we could hopefully assure some correctness of our build
functionality.  Although regarding some 3rd party code AFNI folks
started to distribute (pkundu/meica) -- not so sure.  Dropped some
questions to corresponding authors (no reply whatsoever)... will need to
stalk them I guess

so, altogether -- why not? ;)
