I'm not a lawyer and it's not my code; I don't know what the licensing
should be. However, I can add a bit of info about the two extra
functions.

The first. scrollToBottom, is a modified version of Adium's
Template.html (which I believe to be GPL), and it's current form is
identical to when Renkoo was first bundled with Adium
(http://hg.adium.im/adium-old/file/fb854785cf25/Resources/Message%20Styles/renkoo.AdiumMessageStyle/Contents/Resources/Template.html).

The second, initStyle, was created by Steve when he added html
coalescing to the Default Template.html (though in Renkoo it was later
moved to footer.html). Most of his Renkoo-relevant work is in these
revisions: http://hg.adium.im/adium-1.4/log/f5cbe34603f0/Resources/Message%20Styles/renkoo.AdiumMessageStyle/Contents/Resources/Footer.html
.

There have been many other changes to Renkoo over the years, but these
are the ones that seem most relevant to the question at hand.
