COPYING license file incomplete #90

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. just read COPYING 
2. scroll to the end
3. It says: copyright [yyyy] [name of bla bla]

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Should say copyright [2011] [Google inc.] (for example)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
2.1.9
In SVN it's the same.

Please provide any additional information below.
I'm trying to package it for openSUSE, and I just found that issue with the 
license.
I can easily patch it, but I need you guys to tell me what to put in (and you 
could change it in SVN)

I think it's correct as is.  The COPYING file is a verbatim copy of the license 
and the section you are looking at is in the "How to apply the Apache License 
to your work" section.  If you look at ipaddr.py, it says:

# Copyright 2007 Google Inc.
#  Licensed to PSF under a Contributor Agreement.

# Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License");

Which should adequately answer your questions.

Exactly, there it says:

#To apply the Apache License to your work, attach the following boilerplate 
# notice, with the fields enclosed by brackets "[]" replaced with your own 
# identifying information.

I, as a packager, cannot "make up" identifying information, so I asked the 
project through this issue.
There was a commit answering this issue shortly after. 

So all is good now.
