My understanding is that HP's signing of the standard SGA is case 3.
But there are also Talis and Epimorphics headers to contend with, we
don't have SGAs from them. we do have developers from each company
though, so they can simply remove the copyright themselves.
The CCLAs from Talis and Epimorphics include a grant in "schedule B" to
cover the stuff from before.
Naturally it is polite to keep a credit in the NOTICE file.

Hi mentors,
given this:

1. remove such notices, or
2. move them to the NOTICE file associated with each applicable project
release, or

What's the case for Jena: 2 or 3?
Or, more specifically, what's the case for LARQ module within Jena?

Should I add this to the NOTICE file?

Also, is a DISCLAIMER(.txt) file necessary?

Apache Jena is an effort undergoing incubation at the Apache Software
Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator PMC.
Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further
review
indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making
process
have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF
projects.
While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the
completeness
or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet
to be
fully endorsed by the ASF.
For more information about the incubation status of the Whirr project
you
can go to the following page:

Thanks,
