Add company name to assemblyinfo

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Add a company name to the assemblyinfo.

This would allow the dll to pass the Microsoft Platform Ready test without the 
software under test requiring a waiver. Current error message is 'Elmah.dll 
does not have a valid "Company name" property'

Hi there,

The problem here is that there is no company.
This is Open Source Software, created by private individuals!

It seems very strange to have a missing company name failing such a test.

Cheers,

James

I would say that the general consensus is that it is indeed a strange 
requirement. See for instance this similiar issue for the fluent validation 
library.

fluentvalidation.codeplex.com/workitem/7184

But I use other third party open source libraries that specify company name and 
while not legally true you could interpret "company name" as "responsible 
organization". I would guess that the test requirement stems from the need to 
separate the code that is under test, the binaries with our company name, from 
the third party binaries. As I said you don't fail the test based on this 
missing info but you need to do additional work attaching a disclaimer that 
this and that dll is third party.
