But I do not really know. > We have numerous copies of permissive-licensed code within our repositories, and that is fine as long as no such code is "more restrictive than the ALv2". Since the existing mod_tls is provided under ALv2, then no additional paperwork should be required. We are merely using that code under the license provided. The real question is whether the files to be imported into our repository have headers that specify copyright held by others. For that, we need to get the copyright owners' approval to replace that with our standard header. https://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html (if we want to change them; we could simply copy from upstream, or change if the locus of development is our repository) There is likely some other page talking about permission to switch out the copyright header, but I don't have that link handy.
