Subject: [PATCH www] CONTRIBUTING: ask people to add copyright headers
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2020 14:04:21 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200811140421.21185-1-hi@alyssa.is> (raw)
I want to make sure we're collecting copyright information right from
the start, because it's much easier to keep track of this as content
is created, rather than try to piece it together after the fact should
we ever need to.

do this are provided in the contributing.html file.
