[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I found that the copyright assignment process was more burdensome than I
expected (in particular, the request for employer signoff), so I abandoned
the attempt. Please go ahead and close this bug, if nobody wants to attempt
to implement a fix from scratch.

Thanks (and apologies for the delayed reply),
STL
