Remove the JBoss reference from copyright and license headers

[waynebeaton]

Many of the source files include this text at the very top of the file, as part of the copyright and license header:

JBoss, Home of Professional Open Source

Please remove it.

Some time shortly after the next release would be good timing.

OK, but could you explain why this is being requested? That header file has been in place since the project inception.

1. Jakarta CDI is an Eclipse/Jakarta EE project, not a JBoss Project.
2. The statement is effectively an advertisement for a specific vendor.
3. It is suggestive of a particular implementation of the specification being more special than other implementations.
4. There's no technical or legal reason for it to be there.

If you're wondering "why now?"... I only just noticed it. It never occurred to us before now to look for this sort of thing when we do IP checks.

I've linked this to the list of future version issues as it seems nobody is keen on sacrificing their time to it now.

$ find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -E -i "/^ \* JBoss, Home of Professional Open Source$/d"
$ find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -E -i "/^~ JBoss, Home of Professional Open Source$/d"
$_

There are two files that appear to have managed headers. My best guess is that some automated formatting was applied. We could sed these, but I'm thinking that some manual reformatting is probably preferred.

• ./api/src/main/resources/beans_1_0.xsd
• ./api/src/main/resources/beans_1_1.xsd

Shall I submit a pull request?

By all means, a PR is always welcome :)

@waynebeaton a friendly reminder in case you find a chunk of time to send that PR :)

We should probably have a linter for license headers.

Pull request has been delivered.

I ran the build and the tests all pass.

I hesitated to change the XSD files, but mostly because I don't really understand how they're disseminated and the impact of a non-functional change. Is there any reason why we shouldn't change these files?
