What is the shindig/apache policy for author and copyright citation within contributions?
I've seen mention (but cannot find an example), of citations being removed with the suggestion that authorship can be found by checking who made the change in svn. This does not help with patches (large or small) that are applied by someone other than the contributor - due to lack of commit access. It does not help (as far as I can see) with code changes made outside of svn in another repository (possibly a company repo) that includes shindig code when later we need to identify company changes from shindig changes (for the company's own derivative works) - where we also still want to contribute back company changes to shindig (as author/copyright citations will be removed - potentially time and time again?) We have a rather large contribution (a feature-rich example Java container) that we'd like to donate back... Regards Martin
