excepting external code of course.

Hi,

I can't provide a patch, I don't know who owns copyright.

horde.diff was fine and it has been applied:
http://lists.horde.org/archives/cvs/Week-of-Mon-20080519/078782.html

Any updated patch coming?

http://horde.org/horde/docs/?f=CODING_STANDARDS.html#header-comment-blocks 
describes the formatting. Copyrights should be to The Horde Project 
(http://www.horde.org/)

There's also lib/Horde/MIME/Viewer/ooo/* which is LGPL2.1 or SISL.

From Michael Slusarz:

This has been on my mind for awhile and thought I'd get it out there - 
for the various 3rd party apps we distribute along with our code 
(right now, all I can think of is xinha, fckeditor, tinymce, 
scriptaculous, and prototype), we should probably have a wiki page
tracking their licenses.  For those under the GPL/LGPL/MPL 
(fckeditor), I don't believe we are distributing the full source 
distribution so we should probably be keeping a local copy of the base 
distribution in case anyone ever asks us for the source code.  I think 
xinha is BSD so we just need to have the license in the distribution). 
scriptaculous is MIT-like, so we just need to make sure we distribute 
scriptaculous.js with all apps using it (we do this). prototype is 
MIT-like but doesn't require copyright notices so technically, with 
the above changes, we don't need to do anything.

Attached patch for the cosmetic stuff. Applicable to the horde module.

Attached an updated version. Ordered by sections.

I can provide a patch. But I need information (which sections, whose 
copyright ?)

Also note that (c) doesn't have any legal value. ''Copyright'' or © should be used.

TOC:
* PHP FILES: copyright is probably needed
* JAVASCRIPT: copyright is probably needed
* PHP/CSS THEME FILES: copyright is probably needed
* VARIOUS SCRIPTS: copyright is probably needed
* SQL: ?
* CONFIG: copyright is probably not needed
* DOC: copyright is probably not needed
* L10N (po): copyright is probably needed
* L10N (XML): ?
* TEMPLATES: ?
* HTACCESS: no copyright needed

Other files have strange copyright (missing copyright holder, year, ...):
./po/uk_UA.po:# Copyright (C)
./po/km_KH.po:# Copyright (C) YEAR Horde Project
./po/fi_FI.po:# Copyright (C)
./po/horde.pot:# Copyright (C) YEAR Horde Project
./po/pt_BR.po:# Copyright (C) YEAR Horde Project.
./po/ru_RU.po:# Copyright (C)

Also, all "Copyright (C) AAAA Horde Project" should probably replaced 
by "Copyright AAAA The Horde Project (http://www.horde.org/)" (this is 
cosmetic)

- we should not add copyrights to third-party tools
- we shouldn't add copyrights to the compressed javascript files
- I'm not sure about putting them in SQL scripts
- I don't think we should put copyright notices in .htaccess files
- definitely shouldn't be any notices in favicon.ico files (those are 
graphics)
- the themed_graphics files are empty placeholders, they don't need copyright
- I'm not sure about the help.xml and .po files
- I'm against putting copyright notices into every template file

A patch for everything else would be great, along with thoughts on 
these - thanks.

Attached is some files without copyright notice. Some are third-party 
tools (./services/editor/*, scriptaculous) and some are not.

I can give some help if needed

Hi,

While creating the copyright file for debian packaging, I found that 
horde miss some info.

According to http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html :
<<<
Whichever license you plan to use, the process involves adding two elements to **each** source file of your program: a copyright notice (such as “Copyright 1999 Terry Jones”), and a statement of copying permission, saying that the program is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (or the Lesser GPL).
this is not the case
This probably also apply to other apps.
