+;;; This code was originally written by NIIBE Yutaka in 1997 and 1998.
+;;; It was plan to assign copyright to FSF and merged into GNU Emacs.
+
+;;; Based on my own work, the feature of mixture of multiple languages
+;;; support was added, the feature was written by an employee of PFU
+;;; LIMITED. Because of that, it seems for me that a maintainer (at
+;;; that time) added the copyright notice like:
+
+ ;; Copyright (C) 1999,2000 PFU LIMITED
+
+;;; But, I don't agree that this file is entirely copyrighted by PFU
+;;; LIMITED. It's only for some parts, at maximum.
+;;;
+;;; I never assigned my code to PFU LIMITED.
+;;;
+;;; Although the copyright notice was wrong or not that accurate at
+;;; least, everyone in the project(including the maintainer and PFU
+;;; LIMITED) agreed to distribute the code under GPLv2+.
+;;;
+;;; Please don't do that again. Please agree and prepare your
+;;; assignment to FSF when you develop something for Egg v4.

+;;; like Egg version 3.
