chore: rebrand CLI copyright to MAIL Contributors and add --license - #76
Merged
Conversation
Change the user-facing copyright in CLI --help footers and the backend-init epilog from "Addison Kline" to "2025-present MAIL Contributors". Add a shared --license flag (via cli_help) that prints the Apache-2.0 notice and exits, wired into all CLIs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Updates the user-facing copyright notice in the MAIL CLIs and adds a
--licenseflag.--helpfooters and thebackend-initepilog fromCopyright (c) 2026 Addison KlinetoCopyright (c) 2025-present MAIL Contributors.--licenseflag (viacli_help) that prints MAIL's Apache-2.0 notice and exits. It's wired intomake_arg_parser, somail,mail-server, andmail-daemonall get it;backend-initopts in explicitly.The
2025-presentform preserves the v1 (2025) publication year, stays static (no runtimedatetimedependency), and never needs updating.Per-file header comments are intentionally left unchanged — those are per-file authorship records, distinct from the project's user-facing copyright notice.
