I'm not going to speak for the Linux Foundation here (we have no in-house lawyers), but I have been advised that you need to modify/add at least 1/3 of the file before you can add your copyright notice to a file. That's the rule I go by, and numerous lawyers I have asked about this say it is a safe rule to follow. Linaro should also be following those rules, last I checked with them, so Jorge, you should go back and ask for clarification. But then there's the issue that copyright notices in files really don't mean anything, but I'm not going to get into that discussion right now :) thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
