Hi Magnus, Magnus HAGDORN, on 2021-07-27: > 2. wgrib2 is a large project with many contributors. It is mostly > public domain. What's the best way of sorting out the copyright file?
The two following commands should give you a perhaps noisy, but
rather complete, overview of copyright informations available in
the entire source code; grep's output can be notably copious:
$ find -iname '*copyright*' -or -iname '*licen*e*' -or -iname '*author*'
$ grep -Eir 'copyright|©|licen[cs]e' *
You may also investigate tools such as scan-copyrights(1). It
has some options to even ease the maintenance of d/copyright in
a way compatible with copyright format 1.0 [1]. The copyright
format 1.0 should give you the way to express multiple authors,
licenses, and terms, in a machine readable format.

Thanks for your work on wgrib2!
Have a nice day, :)
