Re: [jakarta.ee-spec] [jakartaee-platform-dev] Question about EFSL notice

I have provided a PR for Jakarta Transactions to meet https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/jta-api/issues/95 as https://github.com/eclipse-ee4j/jta-api/pull/98/files but I am now not sure if it is correct to do so now. Please could someone confirm?

On second read, Lukas, you are correct.  The cited usage in your note should not be changed since it's treated as a template for derivatives.  Sorry I missed that!  And, now I created all of those Issues for the Spec Projects...  Dang it!  That will teach me for attempting to be efficient...

there was exactly the same question some time ago[1] and answer given was:

"This part of the license is instructions for how you're supposed to
update the document if you make a derivative copy of the document. When
you make a copy you're supposed to fill in
that part with the actual URL to the license."

Based on that I would say that No, nothing on these two lines should be
changed as it serves just as a template and this is not "a derivative
copy of the document". But IANAL and now it is being suggested to do the
opposite, so can someone shed some light into this, please? Or am I the
only confused person here now?

thanks,
--lukas
