My understanding is that for a 'category A' license like BSD you just
add it to NOTICES.
Sure, but what about the licence headers?

Over on the Clerezza project I've been asked some advice about a legal
situation that I'm not 100% sure about, I'm pretty sure it's a simple case
so I'm asking the IPMC rather than legal-discuss@
In short:
- there is a few files that are part of an existing FOAF+SSL certification
project (BSD licence) that Clerezza would like to include with some minor
modifications (it's a complete unit of functionality, not just a small
patch).
- the copyright holder (University of Manchester) may consent to submission
to the ASF under the terms of the CLA - but depending on what level of
approval is needed this could take time, so we are wondering if it is
necessary in this case since it is already BSD licensed.
My questions are:
Would it be acceptable to just include the file with the BSD licence and
copyright headers since they are license compatible.
If not..
Would we require a CCLA from Manchester or would an iCLA be sufficient (at
this point I'm unclear if the code is written by the developer working with
the Clerezza team or by someone else at Manchester).
Advice on the best way to proceed would be very helpful.
Thanks,
Ross
