 * The asterisk canary dies on startup sometimes. Canary is anyway not needed
   on Lenny kernel (>= 2.6.25). But if it dies we lose the effect of 
   real-time priority.
-* Canary is not killed when Asterisk is stopped.

 * Some man pages to write.
-* Is it OK to ship AST.{pdf,txt}?
 * Get rid of the lump of code in patch mpglib. Rewrite using code from mpg123?

+The contents of the file "LICENSE" in the source tree:
+    Asterisk is distributed under the GNU General Public License version 2
+    and is also available under alternative licenses negotiated directly
+    with Digium, Inc. If you obtained Asterisk under the GPL, then the GPL
+    applies to all loadable Asterisk modules used on your system as well,
+    except as defined below. The GPL (version 2) is included in this
+    source tree in the file COPYING.
+    
+    This package also includes various components that are not part of
+    Asterisk itself; these components are in the 'contrib' directory
+    and its subdirectories. These components are also distributed under the
+    GPL version 2 as well.
+    
+    Digium, Inc. (formerly Linux Support Services) holds copyright
+    and/or sufficient licenses to all components of the Asterisk
+    package, and therefore can grant, at its sole discretion, the ability
+    for companies, individuals, or organizations to create proprietary or
+    Open Source (even if not GPL) modules which may be dynamically linked at
+    runtime with the portions of Asterisk which fall under our
+    copyright/license umbrella, or are distributed under more flexible
+    licenses than GPL.
+    
+    If you wish to use our code in other GPL programs, don't worry --
+    there is no requirement that you provide the same exception in your
+    GPL'd products (although if you've written a module for Asterisk we
+    would strongly encourage you to make the same exception that we do).
+    
+    Specific permission is also granted to link Asterisk with OpenSSL, OpenH323
+    and/or the UW IMAP Toolkit and distribute the resulting binary files.
+    
+    In addition, Asterisk implements two management/control protocols: the
+    Asterisk Manager Interface (AMI) and the Asterisk Gateway Interface
+    (AGI). It is our belief that applications using these protocols to
+    manage or control an Asterisk instance do not have to be licensed
+    under the GPL or a compatible license, as we believe these protocols
+    do not create a 'derivative work' as referred to in the GPL. However,
+    should any court or other judiciary body find that these protocols do
+    fall under the terms of the GPL, then we hereby grant you a license to
+    use these protocols in combination with Asterisk in external
+    applications licensed under any license you wish.
+    
+    The 'Asterisk' name and logos are trademarks owned by Digium, Inc.,
