Copyright notices #18

Closed jodelamo closed 9 years ago

How essential is it to have a huge copyright notice at the top of index.html? It would feel cleaner if we could get rid of it, and possibly the ones located in other source files as well.

Also it seems old (-2012)... Copyright information in webclient/* is probably updated manually (as opposed to other many other project files, see maven-license-plugin in root pom.xml).

@katarinahallberg Yep. It also differs from file to file, some say "2009-2014".

Consider adding copyright notices in the build step.

jodelamo commented 9 years ago

Policy states that a LICENSE and NOTICE file should be present in the top level directory.

I have a separate branch that adds copyright header programmatically to the concatenated streamflow.js, but that's probably not enough.
