Which > commit and what would you like the message changed to? Right, I could have been more clear. The patch in question is "edk2: Change License.txt from 2-Clause BSD to BSD+Patent" I'm referring to the fact that a diff between https://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause and https://opensource.org/licenses/BSDplusPatent shows substantially less than this patch does - for layout and bulleting format reasons. So, as a clarification regarding why the diff appears greater than the actual difference between the licenses (which would simply be an insertion), you could note in the commit message that the . (An alternative course of action would be to insert a preceding patch aligning the layout and bulleting format of License.txt with the opensource.org version.) > > - (I'm sorry, I should just keep quiet, > > but...) > > The copyright lines at the top of the > > Licence.txt file > > have been bugging me since day 1.

I think I could use input from Laszlo here, but looking at other BSD-licensed projects, they tend to have the LICENSE/COPYING/whatever file contain a row referring to the project/foundation. Which I guess in our case would be TianoCore. Some also add "and contributors" to that one line. (If including the statement in the top-level file is necessary, "TianoCore and contributors" certainly sounds the most appropriate to me.) The way top-level Licence.txt has been used so far has ... given the impression it was intended to be used as shorthand for identifying all copyrights held within the project (and their dates).
