At work all out software is open source - but we have to include a
copyright notice in all source files where possible - as we then
distribute the content under LGPL. The logic is that if we didn't claim
copyright on the contents of the source - someone else might claim it
and make it closed source.

All,
Is it common to have a copyright notice in httpd C source files?
Jim committed a donation of code for HAProxy's PROXY protocol in
r1776076 and later. (Thanks, by the way: I've been hoping to get this
in 2.4 for a while so consider me a big (karma-less) +1 for back-port
of this module).
The C source
https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/httpd/trunk/modules/filters/mod_prox
y_protocol.c?view=markup&pathrev=1776076
file contains this copyright claim:
Copyright 2014 Cloudzilla Inc.
I haven't pulled the source to see if other such claims exist in other
source files, but I have never noticed a copyright claim in other ASF
projects.
Is this a simple oversight or should the copyright notice remain?
Thanks,
- -chris
PS Special thanks to Dan Ruggeri who was working on this independently
of the donation with me, and who missed his own commit of virtually
the same code by a few hours.
