---++ Overview

This plugin is designed for publishing copyright information about topics. The original author (copyright holder) is given to the twiki user that created the topic and this information along with the creation date is kept for copyright notices. Those that edit the topic are also kept for crediting the modifications. The copyright holder can be over ridden with a TWiki variable.
