This has been discussed on various lists, most recently on
[EMAIL PROTECTED] under the subject "Short Apache license for
source files".

In short: using the short license has never been authorized
by the board, and as every other ASF project has always
done, put the entire license on the top of every source file.

(One goal of the next version of the license is to allow inclusion
by reference, so this issue is being address, it's just not yet solved.)

The problem is rather that there are still people who think that the
short licence is ok. What I long for is a definitive statement (or a
reference to it) from an Apache member with his Apache hat on about this
topic. I have followed a lot of discussions but never found such a
statement. Maybe I just missed it. If anyone has one I'd be glad to send
a patch.

I wonder when this is finally going to be hammered into stone somewhere
on the Apache website. Sorry, couldn't resist.

Last I heard, we don't allow inclusion of the license by reference,
which means someone will have to go into each one of these files and
put the full license...
