Ok, I'll add it then.

I agree completely on the licensing of these scripts, however, I don't
see why we would write "Copyright (C) 2010  Canonical, Ltd.". Are you
working for Canonical? I don't. I've got nothing to do with Canonical at
all, they wont own the copyright of things I do. In this case, the
copyrights holders are you and me. So this should be:

Copyright (C) 2010 Clint Byrum <cl...@ubuntu.com>
Copyright (C) 2010 Thomas Goirand <z...@debian.org>

If you have nothing to object to the above, this is what I will write.
Then I'll attach the scripts and I hope that Markus can add them in his
upstream source code.

Thomas
