copyright and license not in source code #9

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

I have submitted pyp to Fedora 
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=805332) but there is no copyright 
notice or license in the source code. This prevents it from being accepted by 
Fedora (and probably most other distros). The website says it is the New BSD 
License, but this would need to be in the source code too to meet the 
requirements of Fedora.

Can a copyright notice and license be put in the source code?

Something like this at the top of the file would work, replacing Sony Pictures 
Imageworks with the appropriate copyright holder. I got it from

pyp has been updated with this information. Please download from the source 
tab...I won't have a chance to update the pypi version for a week or two.

thanks,
