Denis Golovin commented on JBDS-3557:
-------------------------------------

How do we apply EPL license to jbdevstudio-product/installer?

I sugest we do the following:
1. Keep original copyright headers with ASL v2 in jbdevstudio-product/installer files;
2. Add EPL copyryight headers similar to one posted below to all files without any coopyright/license notice;

3. Add jbdevstudio-product/installer/LICENCE file with content similar to https://github.com/dgolovin/jbdevstudio-product/blob/master/plugins/com.jboss.devstudio.core/about.html

4. Include  jbdevstudio-product/installer/LICENCE into installer.jar

Does that right steps?
