Hi guys, If you use Intellij (I think everyone on the team does), please download and install the "Copyright" plugin. It is great! It allows you to set different copyrights across projects or even modules.
I'm updating all source files in the JSecurity project to use the following copyright header. Please ensure you set up the same in your IDE. The benefit of this is that the plugin will update the whole project when there is a new year - no more manually editing of each file to reflect a year change (uses Velocity to substitute $today.year with the current value). Don't add comments to it - the plugin will automatically create the appropriate comment blocks depending on file type (e.g. java -> /* */, xml -> <!-- -->, etc) Copyright (C) 2004-$today.year, Apache Software Foundation or third-party contributors as indicated by the @author tags or express copyright attribution statements applied by the authors.
