   this needs to go to legal team
   
   I don't know why new threads keep being formed without any attempt to link the threads.
   
   This is the existing discussion: https://lists.apache.org/thread/z0r4sr4kdvmh52mlhc5porot2sh1wtok
   
   To summarise that thread:
   * we should aim not to remove the existing Lightbend copyrights 
   * new files should have the standard Apache license header unmodified - example: https://github.com/apache/poi/blob/trunk/poi/src/main/java/org/apache/poi/POIDocument.java
   * if we modify an existing file with major changes then we need to have some new header setup that acknowledges the Lightbend and ASF contributions - the format should be discussed with legal
     * there is no plan to have any major changes to existing files - it will be months before we need to do this
