Are we allowed to unilaterally remove those copyright mentions from the header, or do we absolutely need to seek permission from the original holder ?
On the -dev list discussion Sean suggested a "flag day" after which if you didn't object the new format (without copyright mentions) would be policy... I wonder if we could actually remove those mentions at that point without formal approval.
