Nearly everybody has replied, and is either OK with the licensing change, or
doesn't need mentioning. I've attached the emails that didn't CC: plasma-devel
to this email, in order to generate a public track record, should this ever be
needed.
The only reply I'm missing is Andrew Coles. There was only one commit, which
was changing a bunch of strings to comply with translation policies. Therefor,
I've taken the liberty to not include Andrew in the copyright. (Andrew, if you
want me to put you in there, let me know.)
All the other files are now properly licensed, so this issue is resolved.

... and thanks everybody for the quick turnaround times. Makes boring things
much more bearable :)

Mine is certainly some quick i18n fix, so drop me from consideration.

I am OK with the licensing changes you propose. :D
I should also update the email on these headers to aso...@kde.org...is
plasmate already on git?
