Yes, it was a bit tricky.
I tried to give it (again) a shot (I see you've added a full-blown language

Nice. However we need you to put a notice with your name, stating that ant
is released in the public domain somewhere in the archive.
A file named "COPYRIGHT" should be fine. (I'm not very knowledgeable about
copyrights, but the absence of a copyright notice does not make it public
domain, at least in France).

Should we use blumensath@mathematik.tu-darmstadt.de or the address at LABRI ?
