g2_ircddb was original written by Scott Lawson, KI4LKF. Many of Scott's original comments are contained in the this package. g2_ircddb uses IRCDDB software written by Michael Dirska, DL1BFF. Both Scott and Michael published their code under version 2 of the GNU General Public License. Since I have substantially modified both source streams, I have largely removed their original copyright statements in source code and and have acknowledged their contribution to this current project here. The current form of g2_ircddb would be completely impossible without Scott and Michael's contribution. Thank you for a great starting point of this current project! g2_ircddb continues to be published under Version 2 of the GNU General Public License, see the LICENSE file. Tom n7tae (at) arrl (dot) net
