I just got done relicensing a different project under the GPL. In the process I had to discuss wording and such with Eben Moglen.
Based on his suggestions the other project ended up with a very standard form which I've adapted for coreboot.
In each file, we'd have this to replace the current pile of text.
"This file is part of Coreboot Project. It is subject to the license
Just a couple of minutiae observations. I thought coreboot was supposed to be all lower-case, and shouldn't it read "This file is part of *the* coreboot project" to avoid sounding like you don't have a grasp of English?
