What do ad hoc software projects do about naming a copyright holder when
putting their work under a free software license?  The licenses I've
looked at have "insert copyright holder here," but what's the best thing
to put there when it's a few people hacking something informally?  Apache
and Perl and the BSDs, for example, have formal organizations, but I
don't.  If someone wants to put out FooMumble under an MIT license, in the
hopes other people will be interested, what's the best source for advice
about what to put in the copyright statement?

Thanks,

Bill
