Justin Mclean commented on KAFKA-12593:
---------------------------------------
In general:
- If the work was done at the ASF it should use ASF headers and not have a
copyright line and you should not add anything to NOTICE. [1]
- If the work come in as an SGA then it should be use the ASF header without a
copyright line and the copyright line relocated to the NOTICE file.
- If the work is 3rd party file then it should keep the original header
including the copyright, unless significant changes are made to it [2]
In this case I think it does make sense to replace the headers with a standard
ASF ones and re locate the copyright to the NOTICE file.
