Heron PPMC, I’ve mentioned this before, but IMO, this practice needs to stop.
The community default seems to be to apply the Apache license header with a twitter copyright assertion on all files, even ones copied from other ALv2-licensed projects. Twitter can’t assert copyright on code their employees didn’t create, though, at least in this project, they continue to do so. I find this practice unacceptable. Please reconsider even including “Copyright Twitter $date” at all in license headers. That’s more suitable for the NOTICE file, and removed from the source header. Aside from having a twitter account, I have no affiliation with twitter. As a mentor I was surprised and disappointed to see a Twitter copyright applied to my own (implicitly copyrighted) work. That’s not cool, nor really (IANAL) legal. I would appreciate if this could be corrected. This kind of thing is something podlings need to know how to address proactively. -Taylor
