Re: Foundation and Source Code Copyright

[Havoc Pennington <hp redhat com>]

btw a good habit everyone should try to have is, when you modify a file 
add your name and date to the copyright list at the top. When 
                 submitting or reviewing a patch, should check for this.

I know I often forget it when I review and submit patches, but it's 
always correct and best to do this.

People sometimes feel shy about this but they should not - it's just a 
statement of fact. If you wrote some code in the file you (or your 
employer) will own the copyright, until/unless you sign a contract 
relaying it elsewhere. So adding your name to the top is a statement of 
this factual situation.
