        Let's follow the precedent. Please correct.

        If you are feeling generous, the Test in 6837094 could be fixed, too.

        Thanks.

        We're still working out legalities, but the precedent for legal notices
        for a source file that is non-Sun-authored
        is to not include the Sun copyright line

        Copyright 2009 Sun Microsystems, Inc.

        For example, here is a Google-authored file:

        http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~martin/webrevs/openjdk7/timsort/src/share/classes/java/util/TimSort.java.html

        (and files obtained from the public domain have no copyright line
        inside their legal notice at all)

        It's no big deal either way, especially for tests,
        as all contributors retain their rights under SCA.
