Juan,

Thanks for having a look good sir!

The Disney thing was pointed out by a couple of people. When I was
handling that I also noticed that I hadn't made reference to the
license window.

Sorry, I should have replied about the copyright methods. What I heard
back was that indeed some parts of the system are under different
copyrights, and this isn't a relicense blocker. Again, if SFC comes
back with a different story, I can remove them.
