Thanks for the input everyone.

I had tracked an issue with GeoWave's implementation of AbstractGridFormat
in which it seems the AbstractGridCoverage2DReader was storing and
retrieving source images that had a single 16-bit band from landsat8 (so
the data type for this sample model is unsigned short). The GridCoverage2D
tiles th
I think I did that yesterday while waiting for a build.

I can see the appeal of having "2011-present" or similar, but I'm not sure it
is valid.
I believe the point of the date is to establish when a version was published
for copyright law purposes. This means if a file isn't touched for several
years, it will have an invalid publication date ("presen
Many stackexchange comments on common law copyright and registration

We keep on going in circles on this one. No OSGeo doesn’t have any rules
to follow here, if they did we would be following them. If we want to
“follow OSGeo rules” the best thing we can do is look at what the other
established projects do. I looked at both MapServer and GDAL/OGR and they

Justin,
I appreciate the work you have put into this one, especially your
examination of other OSGeo projects, but in my view, copying the
practices of other projects is another form of circling. Many of these
practices trace their origin to the US pre-Berne. The first GPL licence

Hi all,
I've been working on fleshing this proposal out and adding a bit to it. See
the conversation on on-the-fly reprojection in ImageMosaic. My updated API

OSGeo is able to obtain legal advice, as PMC representative I can make that
request on behalf of our project. As one of the early projects in OSGeo
other projects will be following our lead.
To close this one out I would be content to update our policy to be file

Jody,
I am happy to proceed with file creation/contribution date despite my
small reservations. I think that file creation/contribution date is the
option that has consensus at this time; it will solve the date
maintenance overhead problem that is the reason for this change.
I move that you as
While my personal preference is the same as yours Ben (going with no date
in the header) I think this is the best middle ground. And anything that
moves us away from the constant burden on committers and contributors to
update the headers when it has no tangible benefit is a win.
So what is still
