Update of task #15530 (project administration):
Assigned to: jmd => ineiev

Follow-up Comment #7:
> That file is a "texinfo snippet archive", akin to ".tar" format. IOW, its
format does not permit comments aside from the first line , so adding a
copyright notice is not feasible.
It's a text file; why doesn't it permit comments?
And even if it didn't, the notices should be added in a README file
<https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html#Copyright-Notices>
in the same directory with the files in question.
> Anyway, that is a generated file; it is remade if you should touch any of
the source files and then do "make". It is distributed in the spirit of
documentation: possible to regenerate, but not necessary, so we distribute it
as a convenience to the user.
.info files are also possible to regenerate and distributed as a convenience
to the user; however, they do contain copyright and license notices.
