Sorry, i think you misunderstand.
I meant: "Replacing your internal copyright/whatever headers" with a standard license header before releasing.
Not "erasing MIT license headers", which is completely wrong.
- JoshTriplett 11y agoAh, I see. As in, automatically replacing a "Internal use only, do not distribute" header or similar with a header suitable for external release? Sure, that makes more sense.
- DannyBee 11y agoYes, and my suspicion is that this is essentially what MS messed up. Someone probably wrote a script (as often happens) that removes the first comment block (which they expected to be some internal-use +copyright comment) or something similar and added their headers , and it got applied to these files. I know this, because we've stopped people from making the same mistake :)
