One example: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/COPYRIGHT?view=co In addition some files claim copyright by the FreeBSD foundation but there have been no copyright assignments: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/CHANGES?view=co There is a separate issue of copyrights in src/ having subtly distinct copyrights (- vs * for the bullets). This is a ripe project for $someone to work on: finding the subtle differences and making them conform to a single standard. Note that this would likely require the copyright owner(s) to agree to the change. -- Eitan Adler Source, Ports, Doc committer Bugmeister, Ports Security teams
