So, I've been trying to fill in a copyright file for WebKit, which is a
package for NEW. For the moment, I'm not very sure I like this wording:
- List of files sharing copyright holders and licensing terms
This all nice, but for huge projects, with a quite not small number of
copyright holders and files, the combinations are huge, and maintaining
such a list would be *really* painful.
It is already painful only listing files sharing only the same licensing
terms.
FWIW, at the end of this message is the list of files sharing 3-clause
BSD licensing terms in WebKit (there are also files under 2-clause BSD
and LGPL, and there are a lot of them ; and some of the globbings here
englobe them).
If I'd have to list files sharing copyright holders AND licensing terms,
I'd have 20 times more such sections, since some files have a
combination of some of the copyright holders, while most have only Apple
Inc. as copyright holder. I really don't think we need to go that far,
it would make the whole copyright file unmaintainable.
Also note WebKit is small compared to the Mozilla code-base, where the
copyright file doesn't actually list all copyright holders (which has
been okay for ftp masters, obviously)
