[jira] [Commented] (WOOKIE-253) New sample widget - Walkthrough
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WOOKIE-253?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13144134#comment-13144134 ]
Scott Wilson commented on WOOKIE-253:
-------------------------------------
Thanks Steve I've tested it and it works fine!
So happy to add to scratchpad.
Just one more thing... the code is all marked Copyright 2011 University of Oxford; as its all ASL 2.0 licensed that isn't a problem in terms of including it, just wondering if the intention was to donate the code?
(Otherwise I think we have to add a line to NOTICE and LICENSE)

If code is contributed with no copyright headers and no request for an
entry in NOTICE is made then we don't need to add one. In this case
Oxford wanted to ensure their donation was noticed, so we said "you'll
get a NOTICE entry" ;-)

Just an aside - what is the process whereby code becomes part of the project itself and no longer requires an entry in NOTICE?

Steve is in transit for a few days (on and off) so let me lighten his
load and reply for him (we work together).
See inline...

Code is never "donated" to the ASF, it is only ever licensed so the
existence of any copyright headers is still relevant and we cannot
remove them. However, we can ask the contributor to remove them and
instead put an entry in the notice file.
It's better to remove them as it keeps the code clean, but only a
representative of the contributing org can do so (unless we have an
SLA on file).
In this case I happen to be able to remove these headers (as I am a
part of the same contract that produced this and am named on Oxfords
CCLA).
In other words, I'll do the commit for you now.
