- * <h2>Copyright Statement</h2>
-@verbatim
- ChibiOS/RT - Copyright (C) 2006,2007,2008,2009,2010 Giovanni Di Sirio.
-@endverbatim
- *
- * <h2>Contributions and Copyright Assignment</h2>
- * If you plan to contribute code to the ChibiOS/RT project then there is a
- * requirement you should be aware of: contributing code for inclusion in
- * the ChibiOS/RT <b>main line</b> requires assigning the copyright on the
- * contributed code to me (Giovanni Di Sirio).<br>
- * This may sound a bit strange but is pretty standard for this kind of
- * projects, there are several reasons for this requirement:
- * - ChibiOS/RT will probably also become a commercial product and it would
- * not be possible to re-license the code without ownership. Note that the
- * commercial product would not be a different or better product, just the
- * same GPL product made available, on request, under a different license.
- * The code will always be available to you under the current licensing
- * terms.
- * - Ownership is required when changing the licensing terms and this happens
- * each time the project goes from development/unstable to stable and
- * back because the addition/removal of the GPL linking exception.
- * - It will be easier for the project adopters to have a single ownership
- * point in case of licensing issues (both GPL or commercial).
- * - Losing the ownership on the code could preclude me the opportunity to
- * make this project a full time job as I hope.
- * - I definitely don't want to have to sort out copyright related issues
- * in the future so better be clear than sorry.
- * .
- * Note that contributions will always be welcome even without such copyright
- * assignment, the difference is that the contributed code would not be
- * merged into the main line, it will still made available as contributed
- * code with the contributor(s) copyright notice intact.<br>
- * Submissions of code with copyright notice should only happen through
- * email, please do not commit code with copyright notices directly on
- * the repository.<br>
- * When submitting code please <b>state clearly your intention to keep the
- * copyright</b> on your work by adding your own copyright notice within the
- * source code and by clearly mentioning your intentions in the message. Code
- * contributed without copyright notice will be considered donated.<br>
- * If in doubt with licensing issues please don't hesitate to contact me
- * in order to sort out any problem you may have.<br>
- * Of course the copyright assignment does not mean you would not be
- * recognized for your hard work, see the following section.
- *
