License of individual files

The history of this project is long and complicated, and so are their copyrights and licenses. I (Jesús Cea Avión) wrote this document in orden to clarify the situation.

This code was integrated once in Python 2.x, so I guess somebody did the paperwork related to contributor agreement. This code is derived from that version, so that could be a license checkpoint/blank sheet. I must verify that.

New files will be covered by the 3-clause BSD license.
