ASF GitHub Bot commented on NETBEANS-54:
----------------------------------------

matthiasblaesing commented on issue #227: [NETBEANS-54] adding license headers 
to various files in nbbuild
URL: 
https://github.com/apache/incubator-netbeans/pull/227#issuecomment-341894037
 
 
   @geertjanw for this small change this workflow is overkill, but its good to 
try :-)
   
   I pushed my change into a branch in my repository (branch PR227-update):
   
   https://github.com/matthiasblaesing/incubator-netbeans.git
   
   You can pull my changes with:
   
   ```
   git pull https://github.com/matthiasblaesing/incubator-netbeans.git 
PR227-update
   ```
   
   As I used your commits unmodified a fast-forward merge will be done. After 
the merge one other unittest will fail, that failure is not caused by this 
changeset and already fixed in master.

> Reviewing the software grant [1] provided with the first NetBeans code 
> donation, my understanding is that not all files found in that zip are 
> donated.
> The grant indicates that the contents of that file [2] ("Code File") are 
> donated "excluding any third-party and separately licensed material contained 
> within the Code File". 
> I don't think we can consider that code ready to release as is, due to the 
> uncertainty that this creates w.r.t to which files are donated and which are 
> not.
> The zip archive contains about 45'000 files.
> I see the following options:
> a) Review all files and include only those which are not "third-party and 
> separately licensed material". How such files are identified needs to be 
> defined and documented, either in scripts under version control or as a set 
> of rules. The review process must be documented and traceable, so that we can 
> go back to it if problems are found in the future.
> b) Get an updated grant which does not mention such exclusions.
> If someone sees other options please discuss here or on the NetBeans dev 
> list, referencing this ticket.
