[legal] change of copyright notice policy
The ASF has changed it's copyright notice policy for source files.
The policy is noted here :
http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html
Any release after Nov 1, 2006 must conform to this policy. Since we
aren't near a release yet, we have plenty of time, but we should do
this sooner than later.
First and foremost, any new contributions should follow the policy.
Second, we should decide how we want to proceed. It's clear to me
that we're not going to naturally touch all the files over time in
any reasonable amount of time, so we can't just do it over time as we
work on the code.
The best solution is a script that can be run on an arbitrary source
tree, so that developers can do this on a package by package basis
(or the whole thing at once, although it seems package by package
over time by all the committers seems to be a good way to farm out
the work. :)
I think that patches are a bad idea for this since the script is
neater and re-usable for other projects as well.
Thoughts?

IOW, from today all new files coming to SVN should contain a new license
header. Right?

Is the perl script referenced in the policy doc no good?

Please, don't do a patch.
To make this clear, I'm -1 any massive patch for this.
I am very +1 any small perl script that solves the problem, that can
be applied by anyone.

I've done the similar task for Apache Yoko project some time ago. I
removed original IONA copyright notices and replace them with Apache
one.
I've used simple command line expression based on the knowledge of
copyright notice size.
I can do the same thing for Harmony but the patch will be big... :)

I suggest we work from a shared document like this
http://wiki.apache.org/harmony/SourceHeaders
to get all the source files covered. What do you think?

True, but we should eventually get there. Our web pages do have a
(c) at the bottom anyway, so making them align isn't harmful.

AFAICS from the policy page, we do not need to apply any
changes to the website (it's in the FAQ further down the same page).

Yes, exactly. I didn't really mean on a package basis. If we get a
script soon, I'll just do the VM this week.

I suggest that committers volunteer to run the script (and verify the
results etc.) on a module-by-module, rather than package-by-package,
basis; plus the VMs of course.
Let's list the units of work on the wiki and have people sign-up to
convert them.
I assume that we will convert *all* copyright blocks in SVN (tools,
website, etc.), not just those that would make it into a release, right?
What a drag.
