Copyright and primary legal contact

In spring 2016, the copyright of the code files and the assets were consolidated and standardized. Some members of the core dev team explicitly asked to not be assigned any copyright or responsibility for the code. Most of what now constitutes MakeHuman is thus now jointly copyrighted by the other members of the team.

While doing this, copyright was also assigned to Data Collection AB (which is a limited liability company owned by Joel Palmius), and this company was given the responsibility of working as primary legal contact for MakeHuman.
