The actual gate rule is that the copyright passes through. If you've made non-trivial contributions to the file, then you add your copyright (and you don't remove any others). If you haven't, then you must not add anything. It doesn't matter who maintains it or whether it's a makefile. All that matters is who created the content. Thus, if a Sun employee modifies a file (again, in a non-trivial way) that is originally from someone else, then you'll find two or more copyright notices -- one of them for SMI. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
