I haven't read this thread very carefully this morning :-) but documentation source needs the header, and the policy does apply to documentation files included in a release according to http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html . For example, for derby, this means the dita xml source for documentation needs the header, as do the html files generated from that xml source. Picture it this way: if somebody wants to reuse a particular file, we want the license governing use/reuse of that file to be clear. helpful context: http://tinyurl.com/m7jrq http://tinyurl.com/mkc3c -jean > Also, I'm not going to add headers to the generated classes, such as > _Artist.java and Artist.java, since these are produced from a template > and we don't want the standard templates to have the ASF headers in > them. > > It looks like many test classes don't have headers, either, but I'll add > it to them. > > Thanks, > > /dev/mrg > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Andrus Adamchik [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, July 18, 2006 11:09 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: NOTICE Text > > > > On Jul 18, 2006, at 11:04 AM, Gentry, Michael ((Contractor)) wrote: > > >>Ooops, misread what you said originally.
