Our lawyer agrees, copyright is covered by the "PostgreSQL Global Development Group" copyright line as a contributor.

According to one of Intel’s lawyers, 55 instances of this clause was found when they searched in the PostgreSQL
repository.Therefore, I assume that this obligation has either been satisfied or determined not to apply, given that
thesecond BSD clause already appears in the PostgreSQL source tree. I might have misunderstood the concern, but the
lawyerbelieves this is a non-issue. Could you please provide more clarifying details about the concern?
Thanks,
