When a 3rd party file is contributed, it’s header stays were it is on the file, it’s not moved to NOTICE. It the file was part of a software grant then the copyright notice is added to NOTICE. > 2. When including all or part of another ASF project is the standard > NOTICE sufficient? No it depends on the content of it's NOTICE file (and what parts you have bundled). > I went back through legal-discuss and found that #2 has already been asked > and answered on https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-234. You see in that Mark recommends including the project name/copyright line in the NOTICE file as I’ve suggested to you. > If the source file is submitted with a copyright notice included in it, the > copyright owner (or owner’s agent) must either: > a. remove such notices, or > b. move them to the NOTICE file associated with each applicable project > release, or > c. provide written permission for the ASF to make such removal or > relocation of the notices. You note it states to move the copyright notice not the header. License information belongs in LICENSE, other notices in NOTICE.
