In the GRASS project (GPL) we use the following:
Example (ficticious header for a file called color.c) :
/****************************************************************************
*
* MODULE: d.rast
* AUTHOR(S): CERL
* John Doe - jdoe at some.where.org
* PURPOSE: To provide storage and manipulation of colors used for
* rendering the raster. The colors are stored in a doubly linked
* list which must be initialized with InitColors() before it can
* be used. Note that most linked list functionality (add,
* remove, get) is supported, but their is no sorting
* functionality.
* COPYRIGHT: (C) 2008 by the GRASS Development Team
*
* This program is free software under the GNU General Public
* License (>=v2). Read the file COPYING that comes with GRASS
* for details.
*
*****************************************************************************/
That's rather short and acceptable. Additionally, the COPYING file from
the GPL is included in the tarball.
Best,
Markus
