Jean T. Anderson commented on DERBY-2237:
-----------------------------------------
I've done a little more research on the HTTP project and looked at current doc
source to see if anything has changed for the end user (I believe nothing has
changed).
1) The pdf's include
- a copy of the 2.0 license text from http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0
- the boilerplate notice from
http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html#apply , but only the first part
of it (through the URL, ommitting the last paragraph). I'm guessing that the
PDFs might in part do this because no where in the Apache License 2.0 is the
URL for the license provided.
2) The html docs include
- a copy of the 2.0 license text from http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0
- the footer of each page has this, with the second line linked to
http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html:
Copyright 2006 The Apache Software Foundation.
Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0.
I found the decision regarding the footer for html generated from xml at
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/httpd-docs/200402.mbox/[EMAIL
PROTECTED]
3) The Apache License itself isn't translated -- it gets included in English in
all the translated docs.
I'd like to float a suggestion.
Since the Derby docs do not currently include a copy of the Apache License 2.0,
I suggest modifying the copyright page for each book to include the first part
of the boilerplate like the HTTP PDFs do so that the URL is publicized (but
noting the Derby years, of course):
Copyright 2004-2006 The Apache Software Foundation.
Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License"); you may not
use this file except in compliance
with the License. You may obtain a copy of the License at
http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.
Then include a license subsection containing the complete text of the Apache
License 2.0 (only in English).
This would get the base information into all doc types (PDF, html book, and
html).
We should still additionally look into doing a footer for the html pages that
links to the Apache License, but that requires someone with DITA expertise,
whereas I could myself make the suggested change.
What do people think? If I hear no feedback to the contrary in a couple days,
I'll go ahead and make the changes as I suggested.
> Cleanup copyrights in the DITA source and generated docs

> Key: DERBY-2237
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-2237
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation
> Affects Versions: 10.2.1.6, 10.2.2.0
> Environment: linux
> Reporter: scott hutinger
> Priority: Blocker
> Attachments: dita2fo-shell-copyr1.diff.gz, pt_BR_copyright.diff,
> pt_BR_copyright.diff.html, radmincopyright.html, rgscopyright.html,
> rrefcopyright.html
>
>
> Problems include:
> 1) The PDF docs currently include an empty "Copyright" string in the header.
> dita2fo-shell-copyr1.diff.gz is a patch to fix the fop (.pdf) copyright
> header which is currently blank. This is from march 9, 2006.
> 2) Some source files have the old style copyright in the header that is not
> in compliance with http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html. For example,
> see src/ref/rrefsistabssyscolperms.dita
> 3) The generated html docs have new copyright tags added, such as these
> entries in ref/crefjavbclobnot.html
> <meta name="copyright" content="(C) Copyright 2005" />
> <meta name="DC.rights.owner" content="(C) Copyright 2005" />
