RE: Question about copyright notice in the boilerplate

["Mary McRae" <mary.mcrae@oasis-open.org>]

Hi Anish,

  The only information that can be changed post-vote is the status, approval
date, document URIs, and the corresponding info in the running footer.

  No changes should be made to any of the boilerplate text.

  Note that there are potentially some issues related to namespaces that are
currently under discussion at the sca-assembly TC; other concerns may be
addressed by the liaison subcommittee.

Regards,

Mary
