[jira] [Created] (METRON-1087) Adjust license headers to be comments instead of Javadoc

Justin Leet created METRON-1087:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Adjust license headers to be comments instead of Javadoc
                 Key: METRON-1087
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-1087
             Project: Metron
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.4.0
            Reporter: Justin Leet
            Assignee: Justin Leet
            Priority: Minor


Right now, the majority of our license headers are in Javadoc format.

Notably, Javadoc is subject to reformatting from IDE autoformatters.  In some cases, this has resulted in the whitespace being replaced by paragraph tags, or the removal or some spaces.  Additionally, reformats to fit the column width setup.  Comments maintain formatting, and should be preferred for this reason.

Not adjusting this will causes significant issues for https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-747, as blanket reformat can cause issues will all the license headers.
