I suggest we work from a shared document like this

  http://wiki.apache.org/harmony/SourceHeaders

to get all the source files covered.  What do you think?

The ASF has changed it's copyright notice policy for source files. The
policy is noted here :

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?
