And that's an excellent point.
So, Alex, Paul, Peter, anyone: if you want to craft a "how to create license headers" document (is there one?) that we could put at the top level, that's great.
When we released Plan 9 under GPL, (github.com/brho/plan9) it boiled down to: - file in top level of the tree - this statement in each file /* * This file is part of the UCB release of Plan 9. It is subject to the license * terms in the LICENSE file found in the top-level directory of this * distribution and at http://akaros.cs.berkeley.edu/files/Plan9License. No * part of the UCB release of Plan 9, including this file, may be copied, * modified, propagated, or distributed except according to the terms contained * in the LICENSE file. */
That's how Eben Moglen told us it should be done. If anyone knows, he does, since he wrote the license and procedures.
