-We don't require copyright assignment or any fancy paperwork! Just
-make sure you specify the license and include a copyright statement
-with your name and the current year.
-
-New code should (please) be licensed GPLv2+. I say v2 instead of v3
-because some code from Arch is GPLv2 (no "or any later version"), and
-having to worry about which programs can be combined is a huge pain.
-
-Copyright statements for most code, should be of the form:
-
- # Copyright (C) YEARS NAME <EMAIL>
-
-For 3rd-party code, which has been imported, indent it a bit:
-
- # Copyright (C) YEARS NAME <EMAIL>
-
-Always put a `# License:` line specifying the license of that file.
