md5.c says "If you use this software in a product, an acknowledgment in the product documentation would be appreciated but is not required." I think it would be nice to have some mention in README or AUTHORS or somewhere of the various chunks of code that have been integrated into dillo from elsewhere.

+1 It'd be good to also comment the source file, making clear what has been collected with a view to have copyright issues sorted easily. -- Cheers Jorge.-

Something simple. e.g. md5.c /* This file contains parts of code taken from project_foo * <project foo tags/ack here> */ ... /* Code from project foo BEGIN */ ... /* Code from project foo END */ -- Cheers Jorge.-
