-libbb is BusyBox's utility library. This all used to be in a single file
-(utility.c to be specific). When I split utility.c up to create libbb, I did
-not carefully fix up the copyright and licensing information. I'll do that for
-the next release.

-For now, just trust me that a bunch of people have worked on this stuff,

+libbb is BusyBox's utility library. All of this stuff used to be stuffed into
+a single file named utility.c. When I split utility.c to create libbb, some of
+the very oldest stuff ended up without their original copyright and licensing
+information (which is now lost in the mists of time). If you see something
+that you wrote that is mis-attributed, do let me know so we can fix that up.
