From 0e941d542736dc5eb69add1d3377a4601536eb97 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Bradley M. Kuhn" Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2012 11:38:38 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Simplify copyright/license notice that appears in the binary. Existing copyright notice for binary would need to be longer to achieve optimal accuracy. This compromise punts to the source for full notices, but does note the years of the copyrights and that there are many authors, all licensing under GPLv2. Signed-off-by: Bradley M.
