Description

We are working for an organization and as an organization we are planning to opensource a project which is using openAPI2.0 and 3.0 specifications.

we are planning to generate the stub server and client code using swagger code-gen on top of generated code we may need edit the generated code like example model files, router file (or) main file (or) api_default files etc.. according to our business need/logic .

if we edit any of those files we need to change the file header to our organization property and will opensource those files also.

will there be any legal issue from swagger code-gen?
