Ok.  I'll put it into the source code revision management
system then.

Can I  assume that the copyrights have
transferred to the Amboseli Baboon Research Project and
we'll license the code under the GPL like the rest of Babase?
(Or he can keep copyright and license to the project
under the GPL.  The only difference is that whoever has
the copyright can incorporate the code into a proprietary
software package -- the GPL license grants everyone
possessing the code permission to do anything _except_ turn it
into proprietary software.  It's a share and share alike license.
So if the project has the code and it's GPLed, we can use it, change
it, and share the new programs with the world.  All the things
we want to do.  Even if Tyler retains the original copyright.)

Could he (or somebody) put them on the wiki along
with some instructions on what to do with them?
