Subject: Re: [Openstack-qa-team] Question about licensing header
Hi Daryl -
As I understand it (and I am not a lawyer), the Apache2 license
affords copyright assignment to the committer. It is correct to have a
header with a copyright from the company for which you worked at the
time of contribution. See
http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html#apply.
For the Apache Software Foundation projects, Apache asks that they do
not add copyright statements to their header files. OpenStack projects
do not have such a policy statement that I know of.
Hope this helps!
Anne

While I was doing some assorted maintenance on the Nova tests tonight, I
noticed some inconsistencies in the license header of time files. While most
attribute the work to OpenStack, LLC, I also see some where IBM is mentioned
instead. I'm guessing this might be a copy/paste error, or are individual
organizations supposed to be attributing themselves for their submissions?
