This section refers only to works submitted directly to the ASF by the copyright owner or owner's agent. 2. If the source file is submitted with a copyright notice included in it, the copyright owner (or owner's agent) must either: 1. remove such notices, or 2. move them to the NOTICE file associated with each applicable project release, or 3. provide written permission for the ASF to make such removal or relocation of the notices. TREATMENT OF THIRD-PARTY WORKS The term "third-party work" refers to a work not submitted directly to the ASF by the copyright owner or owner's agent. -- - Mark about.me/markrmiller
