+A single resource file of the POI scratchpad component HDGF is taken from
+ VSDump, and is under the GNU General Public Licence version 3 (GPL v3):
+ http://gplv3.fsf.org/
+Since this is a data file, and has no compiled version (the original
+ file is distributed in both source and binary versions of POI), there should
+ be little difference in licencing requirements compared to the ASL.
+For those wishing to avoid this component, the HDGF part of the POI
+ scratchpad should be omitted.
