No problem. I know you have probably answered these questions in our previous emails but I figured it would be easier to directly address some examples. Here they are from the ticket. Can you help me understand our requirements here a little bit more with a couple examples: 1. https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/blob/master/arch/risc-v/include/arch.h It would seem that this needs to keep the BSD header until Ken re-licenses it under Apache, and we need to call this file out in the LICENSE file as BSD-3, it would not need to be called out in the NOTICE file. 1. https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/blob/master/arch/arm/src/arm/arm.h This one we can put the Apache header on, but do not need to make and additions to the NOTICE or LICENSE files beyond the boilerplate Apache. This is because Greg has agreed to re-licence this code. 1. https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/blob/master/arch/arm/src/imxrt/hardware/rt102x/imxrt102x_ccm.h This one we can put the Apache header on, but do not need to make and additions to the NOTICE or LICENSE files beyond the boilerplate Apache. This is because Greg has agreed to re-licence this code, and while there are other Authors listed he is the sole copyright holder listed. 1. https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/blob/master/arch/arm/src/imxrt/imxrt_lcd.c It would seem that this needs to keep the BSD header unless NXP is willing to relicense it under Apache even though portions are copyrighted by Greg, and we need to call this file out in the LICENSE file as BSD-3, it would not need to be called out in the NOTICE file. General Questions: When do we need to be adding the "Based on source code originally developed by" to the NOTICE file. In a couple of the files coming from FreeBSD I see entries like - Portions of this software were developed by David Chisnall - under sponsorship from the FreeBSD Foundation. I know we have other files with other license or cases to go through, but this should cover the vast majority and can get us moving in the right direction. Thanks for all the help Justin! Brennan
