I don't think it should be changed here

src/lunarphase.cpp
6

This looks suspicious

@winterz ?

src/parsers/plan2/holidayparserdriverplan.cpp
6–13

The original text lacks clarity. Are these file contributors or copyright holders? @winterz

15

why is "by" needed here?

src/parsers/plan2/holidayparserplan.ypp
3–10

same question for this file

src/parsers/plan2/holidayscannerplan.cpp
1297–1301

and these lines were not updated

src/parsers/qcalendarsystem.cpp
833

also looks wrong

Clarified several statements

  • Recovered origin of weekNumber method and its original license
  • Unified verbose license statements
  • Clarified snippet licensing

Updated several statements, but still need clarification if named people are copyright holders or contributors without copyright claim.

src/parsers/plan2/holidayscannerplan.cpp
1297–1301

@winterz same question here as above: are these people copyright holders or file contributors?

src/parsers/qcalendarsystem.cpp
833

I did them intense code-digging and found the source of this snippet

Make snippet copyright statement more verbose

looks ok to me.

no, it's fine.

Add missing SPDX identifier

Did additional code digging in the Plan repository and I think that all stated copyright claims are valid.

src/parsers/plan2/holidayparserdriverplan.cpp
6–13

the original code comes from Plan's holiday.c

  • original author has obvious claim, since important code fragments remain
  • additional code contributors are listed in original source for contribution specific functions each, thus have also a valid copyright claim
src/parsers/plan2/holidayparserplan.ypp
3–10

analyzed code history:

  • original file comes from Plan's parser.y by Thomas Driemeyer
  • IMO the changes for integrating into KOrganizer are above the limit of copyright, so I would (in case of doubt) prefer to state copyright explicitly
  • the individual conversion commits are unfortunately buried deep in the disabled Reviewboard
src/parsers/plan2/holidayscannerplan.cpp
1297–1301

this copyright statement comes from the .lpp file; thus to be discussed in that statement

src/parsers/plan2/holidayscannerplan.lpp
2–3

analyzed the code history of this file:

  • original copyright claim comes from Plan's parser.lex file
  • the code was massively changed and rewritten, thus IMO all three additional claims to the original author are valid IMO.
