Please help fill in the blanks and add other possible copyright holders listed
here [2]. This may also an opportunity to ask them all for their consent
to use the Zlib license for the whole of the cc65 sources. It may also
be a good idea to send an email to the cc65 mailing list as this might
help to contact all contributors.
