+
+I hereby release Fluid under the MIT license, as described in COPYING.
+
+
+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? ;)
