 It does, but does it really need to be so chatty to repeat the obvious facts 
that each contributor's copyright relates only to portions created by that 
contributor and that all rights are reserved by each contributor? I was 
thinking more something like the attachment.

 But if it really needs to be spelled out for whatever lawyerly reason, your 
changes are good enough for me.
