you did it again - writing thousands of words with plenty of quotes that don't matter. But the one thing, the assumption you build everything upon, you write into a note in parentheses. It's like building a sky- scraper with a carport as foundation. Well, at least it makes it easy for me to reply in a single paragraph: I can't spot anything about "the adapter's contribution" in the license text. As the license doesn't de- fine it, I can only assume that copyright applies. And copyright doesn't magically jump over to a translator, AFAIK.
