How much text is required to establish a copyright?

I agree that everything I contributed to documentation might be
relicensed under more relaxed terms, provided that the main contributor
to a specific file doesn't disagree.

I added text describing the enhancements I implemented for --markov
(config section name can be specified on the command line; start/end can
be specified as % values, not just as absolute numbers.)

I added a description for almost all --list= options.

In jumbo-8-unstable, Claudio André added 17 lines (pointing out that a

In unstable-jumbo, there are a few more files in doc. What about those?
