My question was in the context of that the standard ASF header says `Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF)` versus `Copyright ... The Apache Software Foundation`. I was just curious if from a legal standpoint it is technically incorrect to include a regular copyright header when you only hold a license to use someone else's copyrighted work. IANAL, but the right to copy is only one aspect of what copyright means. If you hold the copyright, you have the right to, for example, contribute that work to another OSS project. If Lightbend holds the copyright you can't do that. But I'm not exactly sure how that applies to copyright notices. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
