Copyright for donated files
I assume that when I commit donated files into the code/trunk directory
the copyright headers should reflect the asf? Do I leave the existing
copyright headers in place or remove them?
I'm trying to avoid having to have another commit shortly after the
initial one to correct this! :-)

In that case I'll simply commit what I have and people can go from there.
Re: the commit messages, I haven't committed anything yet as I've been

I did fax the signed paper 2 weeks ago already (after our last email
thread - and notified you so) - now not sure what happened on the
other end

we have (in grants.txt)...
Zavisa Bjelogrli, CEO / Representing Asemantics SRL
"RDFStrore-0.51.tar.gz" - a triple store for RDF data...
Dirk-Willem van Gulik / Representing Self
"RDFStore-0.51.tar.gz (md5 ....)"
we're missing a similar entry from Alberto (representing self). We
had some miscommunication in private e-mail on exactly which form to
send where, so it took a rather long time to get that submitted (I
think you did get this fax out eventually, right Albe?). I hope it
will be in the next batch of faxes Jim processes. I also hope we'll
finally get some paid admin support at the ASF to process these faxes
more regularly :/

yes! Or rather, we need the new-style headers, which isn't really a
copyright header...eg, see
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/triplesoup/code/trunk/
release.sh

Remove any headers you added yourself please. You can add text to the
NOTICE file for things like "initial code by" credits if you want.
A joost employee will remove the ones that may still linger around on
the joost code (just seems extra-safe to me).
Don't worry about moving things that still have the wrong copyright
headers, as long as you use svn mv/cp its easily found/fixed/merged.
