If all licenses must be updated by March 1st 2004, you'd better get us 
some using instructions really quickly, e.g.

what goes in  

Copyright [] [name of copyright owner]

for all our existing code? Will someone need to look up the original 
author and all updaters in CVS?

  The 2.0 version of the Apache License was approved by the ASF (The

  the license to be included by reference instead of listed in every
  file, to clarify the license on submission of contributions, to
  require a patent license on contributions that necessarily infringe
  the contributor's own patents, and to move comments regarding Apache
  and other inherited attribution notices to a location outside the
  license terms (the NOTICE file [1]). 
  
  The result is a license that is compatible with other open source

So far I've just heard that all new releases must be using the new licence
post March 1st 2004.

Though doesn't hurt to sweep through CVS updating as time allows.

Why? The Apache Software Foundation is the copyright owner for any and 
all code in ASF CVSs and projects.
