Thaer,
I believe that the DCMA filing by Monero against SumoKoin also applies to the Masari code . See
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1905086.msg29047236#msg29047236Basically the problem is that the Masari code has indeed modified the copyright statement which does not show the original Monero copyright. Also is suggest that you do not add Masari copyright to files which havent any real contributions by Masari except for function/variable name changes. This always bothered me, i had noticed this in Sumokoin then too.
I suggest looking at some other project (linux kernel my fav) to see how copyright assignments are done for new modifications. It better to rectify now than later.
I've made it more explicit in the repo earlier today when I saw what happened with Sumokoin, though it seems that they also didn't put it explicitly in the Readme which was likely the "last straw" (and I believe they got notice before this takedown at least a couple weeks ago?).
There was a fairly significant refactor that occurred for Masari which touches a lot of the files, so selectively assigning Masari's notice on those files at this point would need more due rigour - I will do this at some point (I agree with your sentiment), despite being currently compliant with the BSD license.
Thanks for your feedback, it's duly noted!
