We need to license our code. I suggest that we just adopt the Mozilla Public License 1.1, put it on the website and matching headers in our code...then we can debate about edits and/or switching to another license.

We've adopted the OpenMRS Public License, but we still need to create a copyright statement that can be put at the top of each document (in the code).

Added this as header template for new classes (before package declaration):

/**

 */

We'll need to retrofit this into all existing code.

The patch was committed to trunk in revision rev:3685. All java files now have the license. Do we want to put this in some of the /metadata files? (mapping files, scripts, etc)
