That's good, because IIRC, Ciaranm has stated before that he did /not/
sign the copyright hand-over -- it wasn't required by the time he
came around, so if I'm not mistaken, particularly since that's what the 
original claimed, that /would/ be copyright Ciaran.  However, a rewrite 
should take care of it, so as I said, good, if you're planning on 
reassigning.  I'd still consider putting in a "based on ..." crediting 
him, as only polite, but I don't know that it's necessary.
