Bug 195245 – [GTK][WPE] Wrong license header in WebKit{,WebExtension}Autocleanups.h

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: WebKit API

[Adrian Perez]

The license headers in these two files contain the Apple license blurb,
but the LGPL2 text should be used instead — because that one is the
license we use for the API layer of the GTK port.

A quick check with “git blame” shows that there are only a few people
who have touched those:

  - Michael Catanzaro
  - Tomas Popela
  - Carlos Garcia Campos
  - Adrian Perez de Castro (that's me!)

I'll try to get the authors to explicitly comment here that changing
the license header is fine by them, before making the actual change.

[Adrian Perez]

Adding [WPE], because in bug #195211 the patch copied the
GTK port headers, so the WPE headers have to be changed once
everybody agrees.

FWIW: I explicitly agree to change the license for these
two files.

[Michael Catanzaro]

Oops. This is pretty minor, but yeah, let's change it. Explicit +1.

[Tomas Popela]

+1 from me as well. Thank you Adrian for spotting this!

[Carlos Garcia Campos]

Sure!

[Adrian Perez]

Thanks everybody for agreeing, I'll take care of making the patch
to change the license blurbs :)
