Dinesh, With the required disclaimer that I'm not a lawyer, and I don't play one on TV, I believe that the changes proposed to Trove in [1] do not make sense. I am not, I do not believe, competent to answer the question of whether or not the earlier changes to cinderclient or ironic must be reverted. -amrith [1] https://review.openstack.org/#/c/346673/

Hi amrith,
I can see the patches got merged against that bug with similar changes:
[python-cinderclient] https://review.openstack.org/#/c/47453/2/cinderclient/base.py [ironic] https://review.openstack.org/#/c/47451/2/ironic/common/image_service.py
Do you think these changes needs to be reverted ?
Thank you, Dinesh Bhor

Bug 1214176 seeks to "Fix copyright headers to be compliant with Foundation policies" and one of the changes being made is to substitute "OpenStack Foundation" in places where the code said "OpenStack LLC".
Someone just pushed changes to Keystone, Murano and Trove today and I have some concerns about this change.
Consider the following changes, [2], [3], [4], and [5].
They assert a copyright in 2011 or 2010 of an entity called "OpenStack Foundation" that was only established in 2012 [6].
Are these changes legally accurate?
