OK, that sounds good.

OK, we should add copyright notices for these.
For the samples, it is probably best if we make them public domain.
This can be done by inserting a comment of the form "This source
file <foo.m> is hereby placed in the public domain. -<author>." at the
top of the source file.
Tom, can you please add copyright or PD notices (preferably the latter,
but its up to you) for
extras/complex_numbers/samples/fft.m
extras/graphics/samples/maze.m
extras/graphics/samples/calc.m
samples/ultra_sub.m
Andrew, can you please add copyright or PD notices for
samples/e.m
samples/eliza.m
I'll do the others.
