Remove CIS Copyright from all OVAL xsd files #155

Open vanderpol opened 6 days ago

vanderpol commented 6 days ago

Abstract With CIS stepping down from the OVAL sponsor, the XSD files should no longer have any CIS copyrights in them. As NIWC is part of the Navy, and the US government doesn't normally copyright files, the licenses will likely be updated without any specific copyright information. If you have any issues/suggestions on this, please leave a comment.
