Not sure what you mean?  The GPL message I added says "either version 2
...  or ... later"  -- does not GPL-2 mean version 2?

OK, no problem.  I was wondering about that, but saw that Monty did not do
that for Blue Banana and there were other examples too.  For example, Monty
has:
/*
 * Cinelerra :: Blue Banana - color modification plugin for Cinelerra-CV
 * Copyright (C) 2012-2013 Monty <monty at xiph.org>
 *
 * This program is free software;

I think that ffmpeg.C was added by Bill but it was probably derived
from somewhere
in FFmpeg code.

OK, no problem, but I think that Adam will object to that.

No, I thought google code repo was no longer supported? -- at least that is
a message I thought Google put out?   What is the URL?  I do not want to
confuse CinGG with all of the rest of the other Cinelerra type repos out
there -- there are 10's of them and maybe even hundreds.

IMPORTANT -- I am NOT changing any currently existing GPL messages because
there are literally thousands of them.  I am only adding messages when I
see they are missing altogether.  For example in Guicast, I only added
messages to the 19 files that had none -- there are 219 files in that
directory and that is the smallest one needed to be done.

I have done more than just these 19 but if the message is wrong then I have
to do all of them over again.  Please provide the message you think I
should add instead.  Or correct the one below that I have added both Adam
and CV to for when I have to add a missing attribution even though neither
have that program file in existence in their directories. For anything
that I have to add a message to that is in HV-8, I just have added whatever
Adam had.
