With apologies, I should have made it clear that I don't know if switching
would help further discussion. I just found the copyright notice odd when I
went to check out the spec. Others on this list will have to explain why
they haven't commented.
I can, however, state with certainty that no Eclipse project could
_implement_ a spec with such a copyright provision :)

I think all you have to do would be to replace the current copyright notice
with something based on the default Eclipse copyright header[1].
I hope that helps!
