[Trennmuster] Possible to relicense German hyphenation file(s) under GPL (or another open source license)?

[Luke Swartz]

That sounds great!  Please let me know when you're done updating the
license strings (I don't think I'm allowed to patch it myself), and we'll
let you know once we're actually using the patterns (I'm assuming the wiki
is at http://projekte.dante.de/Trennmuster/WebHome ?).
