Hi Chris, Apache Pekko has its own complicated history but in short, the code was never explicitly granted to the ASF. We forked Akka because they changed the license of a commonly used Apache licensed set of libs to the Business Sottware License, a Category X License.
The source headers we are using were agreed in this issue: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-626 I would suggest that no project should use non-standard source headers without getting them approved in a similar way (i.e. get it discussed with the Apache Legal Team first).
