No. You are reformatting this. This text dates back to the beginnings of
RTEMS. You should NOT remove the OAR copyright.

I am quite careful with copyright, but everyone can make mistakes. This patch replaces the original content with the new features section from:

https://git.rtems.org/rtems-docs/commit/user/overview/index.rst?id=52f4890281a50d7d2e27386257cc9799d9152707

Which updated OAR Copyright line do you want to see in this patch? I will add it to v2 of the patch.

This is true but out of date. The bulk of the target and BSP independent code is BSD-2 and we state that first. There are older submissions -- primarily around
BSPs and a couple of architectures where GPL code is present.

We state now that we are BSD-2 with remnants of GPLv2 + exception and will
NOT accept code under the old license.

Yes, the patch is actually from 2021, but I was busy with other things in the meantime. I will reformulate this section for v2. The user manual probably needs also an update:
