> The current ASF Source Header and Copyright Notice Policy does not include, and actively discourages, any copyright notice in the header:
> http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html
> Larry Rosen has requested that any source file that contains a license header also include a copyright notice[1], and that his vote be counted[2].  This JIRA tracks these requests.
> The vote itself will take place on the legal-discuss mailing list, start shortly after this month's board meeting on Wednesday, July 17th, and will continue through Sunday July 21st with the results published on Monday July 22nd.  Only votes from members of the Legal Affairs Committee PMC, as recorded in [3] will be considered binding.  To pass, the vote will need a minimum of three +1's and more +1's than -1's.
