Hi mentors, given this: "If the source file is submitted with a copyright notice included in it, the copyright owner (or owner's agent) must either:

Or, more specifically, what's the case for LARQ module within Jena?

""" Also, is a DISCLAIMER(.txt) file necessary? """ Apache Jena is an effort undergoing incubation at the Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator PMC. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF. For more information about the incubation status of the Whirr project you can go to the following page: http://incubator.apache.org/jena/ """ Thanks, Paolo
