Currently derby conforms to the guidelines specified here: http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html http://www.apache.org/dev/apply-license.html I found one hit in the legal-discuss archives [1] that mention discussion of a specific change from this style: "Copyright (c) 2001-2004 - Apache Software Foundation" to this: "Copyright [yyyy] The Apache Software Foundation or its licensors, as applicable" I bet that one post is just the tip of the iceberg. And, heh heh. I'm noticing one snag in all this. :-) At any rate, we should keep formatting the copyright statement the way we are now because that's what the asf specifies. Here's the snag: I think we should drop the "or its licensors, as applicable" because that was dropped from the guidelines, but that's now getting off topic from your question about the (c). > Also, I removed the flag for patch available for 2237.
