About some of the removals:

Copyright(c) 2009-2012  Realtek Corporation.

I believe these copyright markings should _not_ be removed.

I thought I did keep the Copyright information. I have now checked twice to verify that it was done correctly, and that the original dates were kept. If I missed any, I have not found that instance. Please let me know which ones you saw.

- * Contact Information:
- * wlanfae <wlanfae@xxxxxxxxxxx
- * Realtek Corporation, No. 2, Innovation Road II, Hsinchu Science Park,
- * Hsinchu 300, Taiwan.

Why take out the contact information?  Is it invalid?

Realtek no longer supplies that info with their latest drivers, thus I removed it here. That E-mail address is a dummy that people report is never answered - I have not personally tried it.
