I've noticed two files recently checked in, which have slightly off FSF copyright/license notices. Indeed, many of the files in Gnash are that way. I think the errors are just propagated from file to file. I've been fixing them up as I go..
Here's how our copyright/license notices aren't best: * Each file doesn't start with a one-line comment describing it. * There's no // blank line before "You should have received a copy...". * There's often odd whitespace afterward, before the CVS tag. Making it look good is easy, it just takes a moment of attention. The GNU coding standards are documented here: http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Comments http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/maintain.html#Copyright-Notices http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/maintain.html#License-Notices When you edit a file for other reasons, please glance at the top of the file as your text editor comes up, and fix these minor errors whenever you see them. Thanks!
