As a rule of thumb, each time your change is non-trivial – say more than 5 modified or new lines in one specific file – it deserves a Copyright header on that specific file. Note that deleting only does not count, i.e., Copyright does not apply In the past, the project had been very permissive, where even 2 lines only modifying the version and checksum fields lead to hold a Copyright on such modification. Now, it should be avoided, IMHO. Cheers, simon
