-Boilerplate File Header
-=======================
+The preferred licence for new source code is
+`BSD-2-Clause <https://spdx.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause.html>`_:
-Every file should include two comment header blocks, one for the Doxygen
-output and a copyright notice. This is a typical example:
+.. code-block:: none
+

+ POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.
+
+Copyright and License Comment Block
+-----------------------------------
+
+You are the copyright holder. Copy the comment below the top of the file in
+which you want to use this license for your contribution. Replace the
+<FIRST YEAR> placeholder with the year of your first substantial contribution to
+this file. Update the <LAST YEAR> with the year of your last substantial
+contribution to this file. If the first and last years are the same, then
+remove the <LAST YEAR> placeholder with the comma. Replace the
+<COPYRIGHT HOLDER> placeholder with your name.
+
+In case you are a real person, then use the following format for
+<COPYRIGHT HOLDER>: <FIRST NAME> <MIDDLE NAMES> <LAST NAME>. The <FIRST NAME>
+is your first name (also known as given name), the <MIDDLE NAMES> are your
+optional middle names, the <LAST NAME> is your last name (also known as family
+name).
+
+If more than one copyright holder exists for a file, then sort the copyright
+lines by the first year (earlier years are below later years) followed by the
+copyright holder in alphabetical order (A is above B in the file).
+
+Use the following template for a copyright and license comment block. Please
+note that there is no verbatim copy of the BSD-2-Clause license included. The
+license is specified by the SPDX Licence Identifier.
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ /*
+ * SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-2-Clause
+ *
+ * Copyright (C) <FIRST YEAR>, <LAST YEAR> <COPYRIGHT HOLDER>
+ */
+
+Check if the top-level :file:`COPYING` file needs an update.
+
+Header File Template
+--------------------
+
+Use the following guidelines and template for header files (here
+:file:`<foo/bar/baz.h>`):
+
+* Place the copyright and license comment block to the top of the file.
+
+* Use exactly one blank line between the copyright and licence comment block and
+ the Doxygen comment block.
+
+* Separate the Doxygen comment block from the copyright and license, so that
+ the copyright and license information is not included in the Doxygen output.
+
+* For C++ header files discard the extern "C".
.. code-block:: c
- /**
- * @file
- *
- * @ingroup TheGroupForThisFile
- *
- * @brief Short "Table of Contents" Description of File Contents
- *
- * A short description of the purpose of this file.
- */
+ /*
+ * SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-2-Clause
+ *
+ * Copyright (C) <FIRST YEAR>, <LAST YEAR> <COPYRIGHT HOLDER>

+
+ /**

+ #ifdef __cplusplus
+ extern "C" {
+ #endif
+ /* Declarations, defines, macros, inline functions, etc. */
+
+ #ifdef __cplusplus
+ }
+ #endif
+
+ #endif /* _FOO_BAR_BAZ_H */
+
+Source File Template
+--------------------
+
+Use the following template for source files (here implementation of
+:file:`<foo/bar/baz.h>`):
+
+.. code-block:: c
-* Use exactly one blank line between the Doxygen header and copyright notice.
- Leave the first line of the copyright notice blank.
+ /*
+ * SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-2-Clause
+ *
+ * Copyright (C) <FIRST YEAR>, <LAST YEAR> <COPYRIGHT HOLDER>
+ */
-* Separate the Doxygen header and copyright notice so the copyright notice is
- not included in the Doxygen output.
+ #if HAVE_CONFIG_H
+ #include "config.h"
+ #endif
-* The copyright owner and specific license terms may vary.
+ #include <foo/bar/baz.h>
-.. COMMENT: TBD - TBD Add link to license requirements section and show variant licenses.
+ /* Definitions, etc. */
