  • If there are multiple web sites then these all state exactly the same copyright, licencing and authorship.
  • Each source code file has a copyright statement.
  • If supported by the language, each source code file has a copyright statement embedded within a constant.
  • Each source code file has a licence header.

for task 1: The license is consistently listed as BSD. PyPI doesn’t list copyright. The docs say they are copyright all of the authors but elsewhere we say copyright MSU. The GitHub site doesn’t list the authors per se but does have a different list of ‘contributors’.

The documentation is copyright authors. Source code is copyright MSU, by
employment contract.

We should put in a contributor agreement at some point, too, for non-MSU
contributors.

cheers,

At least one machine tool expects the license text to be in each file

licensecheck -r * --ignore env\|third-party\|build
