Any preferences as to what to do with the IBM copyright banner in IJ? 
Is it acceptable to change it as previously proposed:

- - -IJ_IjVers30C199=ij version {0} (C) Copyright IBM Corp. 1997, 2004.
+IJ_IjVers30C199=ij version {0} (C) Copyright 2004 Apache Software 
Foundation.

well, the resolution only talks about source, and not runtime. Printing 
out the full banner as provided by Ken when starting up ij is silly 
(not to mention heavy-handed and inconvenient), so...

This is my preference as well, as I stated in the original email. It 
doesn't seem to be a problem to remove it w/r/t the resolution, so I 
will go that route instead.

My guess is no, any copyright would have to be in line with the ASF
board resolution.

I would say that ij does not need a copyright in its banner.
