[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 0/6] Copyright / license pet peeves

Patches 1 and 6 were too large for the mailing list, so I checked them
in your tree. Patch 6 has some diffs that leave lines badly wrapped:

+ * THE COPYRIGHT OWNER(S) AND/OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM,
+ * DAMAGES OR OTHER
+ * LIABILITY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING

other than that, all this looks like an improvement to me.

There are some instances of "VMWARE" and "THE COPYRIGHT OWNER(S)
AND/OR ITS SUPPLIERS" that don't match the license
(http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT) that I think should be changed.
In particular, "VMWARE" is odd since they're not the copyright holder.
