I’m sorry, I do not understand these responses. I did not mention
advertising, only attribution. I did not mention paying to get listed in the
NOTICE. These negative assumptions discourage my motivation to contribute to
these kinds of discussions.
It is my understanding that the employer of a committer almost always holds
copyright of the code contributed by that committer. I do not see anything in
the linked license that prohibits anyone from adding their copyright to NOTICE
because I thought a copyright was a legal notice. And plenty of companies that
donated the original code are already in NOTICE files.
Please educate me.
Thanks,
-Alex

Why not let other companies add their logo to NOTICE if it is important to them?
