2019 should be fine.

Remove the Oracle copyright from the final versions of specs.

(Do not remove Oracle copyright from source code.)

Do we want the copyright to just be 2019 for Eclipse or should it be 2018-2019?

Do we want to remove Oracle copyright too, or should we just add Eclipse: https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/jta-api/pull/51

And I just realized that there actually isn't any copyright statement in the boilerplate specification template!  Argh!

I think we should add the copyright statement to the license-efsl.adoc file:

--- a/src/main/asciidoc/license-efsl.adoc
+++ b/src/main/asciidoc/license-efsl.adoc
@@ -14,6 +14,8 @@ endif::[]
Release: {revdate}
....

+Copyright (c) 2019 Eclipse Foundation.
+
=== Eclipse Foundation Specification License

By using and/or copying this document, or the Eclipse Foundation


Look good?

I'm assuming we want:

Copyright (c) 2019 Eclipse Foundation.

Bill,
What dates should we use for the Copyright statements?  Leave the original dates or just use 2019?  And, how should we attribute the Eclipse Foundation?  Maybe these are questions for Mike or Wayne...


For example, the Platform spec has this:
Copyright (c) 2017, 2019 Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.


I'll take a guess it would become this:
Copyright (c) 2019 Eclipse Foundation. All rights reserved.

I was wrong.

I've been telling many of you that the specifications, including the javadocs,
should be copyright of Oracle since they're derived from source code that is
copyright of Oracle.  That would be the standard Oracle copyright approach.

Apparently the Eclipse Foundation Specification License requires that,
even though the Eclipse Foundation hasn't directly contributed to the
content of the specifications, the final versions of the specifications
(which includes the specification documents and the javadocs), must be
copyright "Eclipse Foundation".  We're assigning the Eclipse Foundation
copyright to our contributions for these specifications.

Sorry, but this means updating all our submissions to reflect this copyright
requirement.
