Hi Brad,
If the file is in the branch, i.e., already in the repository, then it
has been donated and it's ok to replace the Oracle/Sun license and to
replace it with the Apache ASF license.

copyright.
So I'm left kinda confused. Was this really donated by Oracle with this
copyright? If so, what should we do in these cases?

Hi Brad,
If the file was part of the donation (which it was), and the license header
does not look suspicious (which it does not), then I believe the header can
be replaced with the standard ASF header, look for example into:
Now the C/C++ modules are sitting on their own branch, I'm trying to fix
things. This is the main reason for me getting involved in the project.
How do I fix the licenses?
For example, the following file:
