The BSD0 license cites the name of "Copyright (C) 2006 by Rob Landley rob@landley.net".
It seems that the license should default to the name of the creator.

I am using 1.4.3 on FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p1

Great job on this project!

Awesome. But it might be a good idea to not blindly import them. Otherwise, by default we're licensing code to 3rd parties by default.
