Spark and Hadoop license and notice files, are for a a number of reasons. poor 
examples to copy, please don’t copy what they do.

INAL but under US law my understanding is:
- The copyright notice contains the word copyright or the symbol,  the year of 
publication, and the name of the owner.
- It’s not required to state this and protection is automatic.
- it the year is wrong and it’s before the data of publication the data of 
publication is taken.
- if the year is out by more than one year then the notice is considered 
invalid.

See 405 and 406 of [1] and [2].

So does it really matter? Probably not as we’ll be dead long before copyright 
expires but it best to put the year(s) of publication.

Thanks,
Justin

2020-01-26 Thread Paul King
IANAL, but I think for an individual file your analysis is correct, i.e. no
change required if no substantive change to the file.
For the NOTICE file, my understanding is that it represents a summary for
the entire release, so best to change.
I don't have a definitive reference to give you though to confirm that
understanding.
Someone with more knowledge might correct me or be able to provide such a
reference.
I agree that it isn't implemented consistently.

 Cheers, Paul.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache DataSketches-java 1.2.0-incubating-RC2

2020-01-26 Thread leerho
Paul,

WRT the year bump on Copyright notices.

It is my understanding that if a file has not been substantially changed,
that it is not necessary to change the year on a Copyright notice every
time the year rolls over.

As for the NOTICE file, it has not changed at all.  So it should not be
necessary to change the year, unless, somehow, the NOTICE file is special.

If you look at these NOTICE files: for Hadoop, it is still dated 2006;
Spark is dated 2014;  Beam is 2016-2018, PDFBox is 2014.
Clearly this rule, if it is truly legally required, is not consistently
implemented.

Is my understanding correct?

Lee.
