Porters,

I just released Encode 2.16 as follows.  In terms of codes it is  
virtually no different from 2.15 but it contains two important non- 
code fixes.

First, it addresses the absence of COPYRIGHT section.  Since Encode  
is part of core and I felt owe my fellows too much credit to claim  
such, I kept leaving that part intentionally blank -- till I got this.

Second, I perltidy-ed all *.pm's  Encode has accepted so many patches  
and in a course of doing so, it kinda turned into a grab-bag of  
coding styles.  I reckoned time is high that I applied good  
practices.  The only difference from the perltidy default is -l=76; I  
so did because that's what MIME header uses.

Ticket <URL: http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19056 >
> There is no license in the Encode package.  It is not clear under what
> basis CPAN has permission to distribute the module.

So I finally put my name on COPYRIGHT while adding this disclaimer to  
MAINTAINER section.

   While Dan Kogai retains the copyright as a maintainer, the credit
   should go to all those involoved.  See AUTHORS for those submitted
   codes.

If any of you listed on AUTHORS section and want your name added to  
COPYRIGHT, you are welcome.

Encode remains 2.12 there but I consider the current version mature  
enough for maint.  Nicholas, would to consider doing so?
