My current understanding is that you can not assume you are allowed to
use code if it has no license. Is there an exception for
generated/template code?
If yes then I am supporting this but we should make sure this works
legally. Can we get some confirmation about this from some license
specialist from apache or is this written down somehere already?

So +1 for removing any header from generated code.

Hi
When end users of Camel uses the Camel Maven Archetypes to create new
projects
http://camel.apache.org/camel-maven-archetypes.html
Then we generate a new skeleton Maven project for them.
Currently these *generated* source files contains ASF license headers.
I want to discuss if we should remove these ASF headers from the
*generated* files.
Our end users works in organization that build software, and they may
not use any license headers,
or use their own license headers, or use another kind of header.
I think we should not include any license headers at all, and leave it
for the end users to decide for that.
Any thoughts?
