I'm not sure if this change should be considered trivial, but adding copyright claim on a file without prior copyright claims could causing confusion like in this case. One potential solution is to add a more specific description on the NXP change together with the copyright claim. But maybe an easier solution is to add Rasmus your Copyright claim first if you are ok with it. Regards, Leo
