I think the clean way is adding a note that explicitly states that the

Then the note would explicitly state that the translation (and the
modifications, if any) are

   Copyright ©  

   



Except that the original files don't have any notice. For those that 
did, the notice has been kept.

Sounds reasonable.  Hubert, can we do that?  Let me know if I can help.



Given that the original code is in a different language, I don't see 
where this even make sense.
