This is of course going to come down to the license we choose for Seam 3. If
we follow the lead of Weld, Weld extensions and Arquillian, we would choose
ASL:

/*

 * Copyright 2010, JBoss by Red Hat, Inc., and individual contributors
 * by the @authors tag. See the copyright.txt in the distribution for a
 * full listing of individual contributors.

 */

Or stick with the Seam 2 license, LGPL:

/*

 * Copyright 2010, JBoss by Red Hat, Inc., and individual contributors
 * by the @authors tag. See the copyright.txt in the distribution for a

 */

I suppose we could also consider a dual-license. And it would be best to
start a new thread for that so that the subject is correct.
