[LAD] Impro-Visor created on sourceforge

[Robert Keller]

Arnold, thank you. I think I have everything in SF now. I added GPL  
notice to the package-info.java files and added INSTALL.txt,  
COPYING.txt, and LICENSE.txt.

Is there anything else I should have?

I appreciate your help.

Regards,

Bob
