Hi,

While waiting for my AZERTY keyboard, I have started working on the EC firmware and noticed that eoma68/laptop_15in_pcb2/src/main.c does not have an header mentioning license and authorship, and that there is no readme (yet... A README.md is in the works) which would provide overall licensing and authorship information.

just haven't had time

I'll add the header while I'm at it, but for that, I need to determine the licensing and author(s).

that'll be only me unless it says "this file is part of the libopencm3 project". one exception: the himax hx8357 #defines. those are from the linux kernel.

Many other files in the same folder are LPGLv3 (because they are copies/derivatives of libopencm3) so I guess main.c should be GPLv3 (rather than LGPLv3 as it is not a library component).

main.c can still be LGPLv3: i just choose it to be GPLv3.

As for authorship, git log shows Luke as the sole author, but I cannot check if the file is a derivative of some other source with identified authors which should be mentioned too.

no there aren't. the example that i started from (a hello world one from libopencm3) was so few lines of code, and did not have a copyright header, that i didn't add one either.

For now, I'll go with GPLv3 as the license and Luke as sole author, but anyone feel free to correct me if needed.

yep.
