License notices on the Debian version from which this version is derived:

This package was put together by Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>, using
sources from:
	ftp://ftp.x.org/R5contrib/xfishtank.tar.Z

I tracked down John Bradley <bradley@trilon.com>, who wrote the xfish
program back around 1987, that xfishtank is derived from. He stated the
following copyright:

> It doesn't have one - do whatever you'd like with it.  Enjoy!
