+File Templates
+==============
 
+Every source code file shall have a copyright and license block.  Corresponding
+to the licence, every file shall have an
+`SPDX License Identifier <https://spdx.org/ids-how>`_ in the first possible line
+of the file.  C/C++ files should have a Doxygen file comment block.
 
-Boilerplate File Header
-=======================
+The preferred license for source code is
+`BSD-2-Clause <https://spdx.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause.html>`_.  The preferred
+license for documentation is
+`CC-BY-SA-4.0 <https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode>`_.
 
-Every file should include two comment header blocks, one for the Doxygen
-output and a copyright notice.  This is a typical example:

+
+Copyright and License Block
+---------------------------
+
+You are the copyright holder.  Use the following copyright and license block for
+your source code contributions to the RTEMS Project.  Place it after the SPDX
+License Identifier line and the optional file documentation block.  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 block.  Do not change the
+license text.

+.. code-block:: none

+C/C++ Header File Template
+--------------------------
+
+Use the following guidelines and template for C and C++ header files (here
+:file:`<foo/bar/baz.h>`):
+
+* Place the SPDX License Identifier in the first line of the file.
+
+* Add a Doxygen file documentation block.
+
+* Place the copyright and license comment block after the documentation block.
+
+* For the <FIRST YEAR>, <LAST YEAR>, and <COPYRIGHT HOLDER> placeholders see
+  :ref:`FileHeaderCopyright`.
+
+* Separate comment blocks by exactly one blank line.
+
+* 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".
