No problem.  We changed all the source code headers in the Velocity
Engine in mid-October.

On a related note (again, you may know this), we have to be vigilant
when accepting contributions to make sure there are no copyright
notices from the individual in the source code.  (they can be
separately added to a NOTICES file, though we haven't needed to do
that to date).  Finally, non-committer contributors must check the
"Grant" checkbox when submitting patches via JIRA.

This is all slightly onerous, but not too bad.  Personally, I
appreciate having some guidelines for this kind of stuff.  Although
it's unlikely, an SCO-like event would be disastrous -- I see this
type of discipline as good preventative insurance.
