Hello,
I'm writing to you because you wrote the module in subject. Trying to include
the patch for this module into the Debian package for john, I encountered some
issues:
1) no copyright years are given.
Since a patch cannot convey timestamps information, I cannot infer those
from anywhere. Please provide one or more years, or a range;
2) no licensing statement is made.
Please choose a DFSG-free license to ease inclusion into Debian. Also, you
might want to ask for inclusion upstream, and that has additional
requirements:

Also Public Domain is fine, but please clearly state it.
3) I suppose you're the copyright holder for doc/HDAA_README as well, but I
cannot include it until I'm sure. So please clearly state this as well.
Please remember to keep the list CCed, so that we can have a public record of
our mailing.
Kindly,
David Paleino
