The rationale for doing it this way was 2-fold. First: although *source code* no longer is supposed to have "copyright" statements in the headers (it only has license statements); the documentation (when formatted as a book for printing) traditionally has copyright statements. Second: the documentation is often printed into a book (it has a table of contents, page numbers, etc.,). As such it would be somewhat more likely to be independently "distributed" than source code. If we are going to put copyright statements in the book, it seemed appropriate to include the copyright statement that would have otherwise been in the notices file.

+1 The copyright statement is true, AFAIK. Portions are still under IBM's copyright, and acknowledging that in this way seems good to me for the reasons Marshall named. -- #kenP-)} Ken Coar, Sanagendamgagwedweinini http://Ken.Coar.Org/ Author, developer, opinionist http://Apache-Server.Com/ "Millennium hand and shrimp!" - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Such a book 'independently "distributed"' still has to adhere to the terms of the Apache Software Licence v2 which requires a readable form of the notice file (see 4d in ASLv2). Maybe these IBM copyright notices would form a "readable version" of the notice file? I don't think an ASF distribution needs to contain them, a producer of a book would have to incorporate them into their book.

I would expect them transposed, IBM the original owner/contributor, ASF the supplemental/collected works copyright holder. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
