If you think it's a good idea I have no problems with that. I just don't like 
you saying it shouldn't be committed because the license isn't valid. It 
certainly is. Feels like people are trying to bust my balls, and I'm not sure 
why ;-)

Most of the license you posted doesn't apply to what I ported - the things I 
ported are only based on fx.c and effects.c, both of which have very BSD-like 
free licenses and quite are suitable to use as reference when writing KDE 
library code.

Since you have CVS access would you like to add something like the following, 
although again I do not feel it is necessary since it's neither a direct port 
nor a substantial portion of ImageMagick. Again, it's just busting my balls 
:P
