Hi Hemant,

What does it mean to have a license header in release notes?
It looks unnecessary from both license and copyright point of view, is there a
legal requirement for it?

Indeed I was thinking removing the header from the release notes that has it...

LF legal reported it as missing license. All other *.rst files have the 
license headers.

Let me check it with LF Legal.

It has been recommended to add SPDX tags to release notes,
with a global copyright on behalf of all contributors, or community.

We need a v2 of this patch, thanks.
