Hi,

in our projects (soa-bpmn, soa-bepl, mdt-bpmn2) the eclipse license text seems to be outdated (it is still from the year 2011).

Can someone please point me to a page or another eclipse project, where I can see the correct Eclipse license text, so that I can copy the text into my features.properties and license.html artifacts. Especially the text for the feature.properties has a curious formatting. So I am looking for a features.properties file where I can copy this formatting to avoid breaking the text formatting at some line where I should not do so.

we use the eclipse license feature [1] e.g. here in the egit feature [2].

The version of the license feature is defined in the target platform we use [3].

In feature.properties we use [4]. If there is a new version of the license we

update the version of the license feature we include in the target platform.
