I was wondering what the policy is regarding copyright notices and license
boilerplate text at the top of source files.

I am currently rewriting the bz2 module (see http://bugs.python.org/issue5863),
splitting the existing Modules/bz2module.c into Modules/_bz2module.c and
Lib/bz2.py.

Are new files expected to include a copyright notice and/or license boilerplate
text? Also, is it necessary for _bz2module.c (new) to retain the copyright
notices from bz2module.c (old)? In the tracker issue, Antoine said he didn't
think so, but suggested that I get some additional opinions.

Regards,
Nadeem
