justinmclean commented on issue #528: sched/mqueue: Correct/update license headers. URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/pull/528#issuecomment-597401092 Hi, > @justinmclean <https://github.com/justinmclean> Since this is not third party code, the current author and claimed copyright hold could simpley change the copyright to me correct? People do that all the time. Then any questions would be gone. > They may not have permission to change it and the copyright may not actually be theirs but the company they work for. It may depend on their employment contract or teh country they work in. It can be complex. I would start with the low hanging fruit first - identify all files where you are the sole owner, that didn’t originally come from another project or had any code copy and pasted from elsewhere. i.e. files you are 100% clear that you know the provenance of every single line of code and change the headers on those. This is probably going tp be the majority off the files but not all of them. Thanks, Justin
