+Copyright � 2000-2002, 2008 Frank Wen <getfrank@gmail.com>
+
+I hereby release Fluid under the MIT license, as described in below. 
+
+Thanks to Toby Smithe for helping to get Fluid included in Ubuntu.
+
+This package, of course, is the original Release 3 of Fluid.  
+
+
+Fluid was constructed in part from samples found in the public domain that I
+ edited/cleaned/remixed/programmed and largely from recordings of my own and
+ in conjunction with the people below who helped along the way: 
+
+Suren M. Seron
+ Scott Hanan 
+Steve Aupperle 
+Chris Gillman 
+Alex Taubr
+ Chris Prola 
+Andrew Klenk
+ Winfried Hubbe 
+Dylan
+ Tim
+ Gort 
+Uros Katic 
+Ethan Winer (http://www.ethanwiner.com) 
+
+
+It's obviously been a few years since the project, but its nice to see that 
+people are still enjoying my work and getting good use out of it.  As always,
+I'd like to hear some work done with Fluid so email me, or just email me to
+say hello and tell me what is going on in the computer musician world.
+Who knows, maybe I'll kick start this project again? ;)
