Let's list the units of work on the wiki and have people sign-up to
convert them.
I assume that we will convert *all* copyright blocks in SVN (tools,
website, etc.), not just those that would make it into a release,
right?
AFAICS from the policy page, we do not need to apply any
changes to the website (it's in the FAQ further down the same page).
True, but we should eventually get there. Our web pages do have a
(c) at the bottom anyway, so making them align isn't harmful.

The ASF has changed it's copyright notice policy for source
files. The
policy is noted here :
http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html
Any release after Nov 1, 2006 must conform to this policy. Since we
aren't near a release yet, we have plenty of time, but we should
do this
sooner than later.
First and foremost, any new contributions should follow the policy.
Second, we should decide how we want to proceed. It's clear to
me that
we're not going to naturally touch all the files over time in any
reasonable amount of time, so we can't just do it over time as we
work
on the code.
The best solution is a script that can be run on an arbitrary source
tree, so that developers can do this on a package by package
basis (or
the whole thing at once, although it seems package by package
over time
by all the committers seems to be a good way to farm out the
work. :)
I think that patches are a bad idea for this since the script is
neater
and re-usable for other projects as well.
Thoughts?
