Each CS project that produces an assembly (aka DLL) has a file called
AssemblyInfo.cs. This will show under the properties tag in the solution
explorer. This file does versioning and also stamps a copyright into the
assembly's file properties so when you right click on a DLL it will show in the
File Info properties.
The business end of this code is below:
[assembly: AssemblyTitle("Trade.BusinessServiceDataContract")]
[assembly: AssemblyDescription("")]
[assembly: AssemblyConfiguration("")]
[assembly: AssemblyCompany("Microsoft")]
[assembly: AssemblyProduct(".NET StockTrader")]
[assembly: AssemblyCopyright("Copyright ? Microsoft 2008")]
[assembly: AssemblyTrademark("")]
[assembly: AssemblyCulture("")]
How shall I treat this? Should I replace Microsoft with Apache in the company
and copyright?

Thanks!

Probably not. Anything "binary" really has no way to add the entire license
thing anyway.

Anything that supports comments and has any creativity expressed in it at all
should have the license header.
