Even though I've never asked upstream, I'd like to keep that part. It's
not that much about the software than it's about people selling manpower
of others (all the work needed in order to keep the public DCC network
in shape).  Upstream really dislikes that behaviour and since people
sometimes just install stuff without ever reading LICENSE, it makes
sense to point that out---as clearly, as upstream does on the dcc
mailing list over and over again.. :)

You mean INSTALL?  I'm just reproducing the steps from the official
Makefile since we never run `make install' there.  Without that part,
the default installation will create configuration files with default
(unsafe) secrets: `secret1' and `secret2'.
