KWSys provides a platform-independent API to many common system features that are implemented differently on every platform. This library is intended to be shared among many projects, so it has a configurable namespace. Each project should configure KWSys to use a namespace unique to itself. See comments in CMakeLists.txt for details. You are probably reading this file in the source tree of a surrounding project. In that case, see "../README.kwsys" for details of using KWSys in your project. See CONTRIBUTING.rst for instructions to contribute KWSys changes.

Per-source copyright/license notice headers that spell out copyright holder names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong. Precise contributor information is already maintained automatically by the version control tool. Ultimately it is the receiver of a file who is responsible for determining its licensing status, and per-source notices are merely a convenience. Therefore it is simpler and more accurate for each source to have a generic notice of the license name and references to more detailed information on copyright holders and full license terms. Our `Copyright.txt` file now contains a list of Contributors whose names appeared source-level copyright notices. It also references version control history for more precise information. Therefore we no longer need to spell out the list of Contributors in each source file notice. Replace KWSys per-source copyright/license notice headers with a short description of the license and links to `Copyright.txt` and online information available from "https://cmake.org/licensing#kwsys". Run the `filter-notices.bash` script to perform the replacements mechanically. Manually fix up the shebang line in one file. Change-Id: I8497f7c868664dcf54a8608ab302ad93c860b334
