Hi Pádraic,
I think it's fine to paste it right in - for example the New BSD License needs you to edit it for copyright attribution.
I tend to skip the copyright attribution since there's an @copyright tag already in the header block, so that's not really an issue.
It's also very short - not a huge license like the GPL or revised LGPL.
agreed (~20 lines). Still, having it in all the files can be noisy, hence my question.
Does QA have any rules regarding a LICENSE or COPYING file included with the source code?
The only "official" example I see is in the manual: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/standards.header.php which has a note on where you can find the license. Best regards, -- Lorenzo Alberton http://pear.php.net/user/quipo
