Hi Stuart, hi all, the copyright violation isn't really one - I wrote both texts. Now, technically you are right of course, but I'll get a CC logo put up on our project page, which would resolve the issue. I'll ask the departmental web person to do this now! We'll want to rewrite it a bit anyway.
Sibi, Fred: Many thanks for comments and willingness to help out!! Great to have your responses!
