   I think it would make more sense to put additional information such as 
   authorship, references, technical description, etc. outside of the 
   copyright header in separate comments somewhere after the copyright header.
   
   For one thing, the copyright header must have a very strict format so 
   that it can be automatically parsed and verified by tools like RAT.  So 
   it is not a good place for free-form comments.
