[Aiml-programr-developers] New graphmaster "node" class completed

Guys,

An Authors.txt file (or something similar) with our names, broadly what
we do/did and a reference to a means of contacting us would be useful. E.g:

John Smith (http://jsmith.com/contact) - I wrote and maintain the foo
module and contributed to / refactored the bar class with Fred.

My motivation is simply so third parties / new joiners with queries
would know who to ask for particular things. Signing individual files is
not really important - finding out who does/did what and why in a
project certainly saves time (I speak from personal experience here :-) ...)

Also, we need to decide on a license (GPL2/3?) - might I suggest we
include a License.txt file containing appropriate information?

Best wishes,

Nicholas
