Argh! I was a bit too naive... I reverted my yesterday commits.
Only hpricot and builder use embedded copy. blankslate.rb has
disappeared from the newer version of ruby-facets (the previous one had
just a warning message). Ramaze has a simpler version, but could use the
real one.

Just a short question, while I am at it: blankslate.rb is extracted from
Builder, released under the MIT(Expat) license. The blankslate project
does not mention any license explicitely, expect the header of
blankslate.rb:
 All right reserved.
 .
 Permission is granted for use, copying, modification, distribution,
 and distribution of modified versions of this work as long as the above
 copyright notice is included.
Should I consider the license as being this paragraph, or as being MIT?
