Thanks Thomas.

Eddie, as IBM contributed code our preferred license is GPLv2+. Be
sure to include the copyright line in your header (I noticed some OCC
files are missing this, please audit all of your recent
contributions):

// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+
// Copyright IBM Corp 2019

Cheers,

Joel
