Description

During the IPMC vote for the Fluss 0.8.0 RC1 release on the Incubator mailing list (thread ), Justin raised an important point:

For the LightProto file, some of them appear to be autogenerated, while others do not; however, they all have ASF headers. Are some of these 3rd party files, and if so, they should not have ASF headers.

The files in question (e.g., ./fluss-protogen/fluss-protogen-generator/*) were migrated from the Splunk/lightproto project, which was archived on February 21, 2024. These are third-party source files, originally licensed under the Apache License 2.0 by Splunk, and should retain their original copyright and license headers, not ASF headers.

We will correct this by restoring the original headers:

/**

 */

This ensures compliance with both Apache licensing policies and proper attribution of third-party code. We’ll include this fix in the next release.
