The Apache 2.0 license on the website shows that it ends after "END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS" https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0
Our https://github.com/salesforce/oss-template/blob/main/license_info.md also shows the license ending there:
This text exists because it's been mistakenly copied and pasted from https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt where it includes placeholder text and the intent seems to be reproducing the application instructions as seen on https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0 rather than as text that's intended to be included in the license.
The text removed in this PR diverges slightly from the text on https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0#apply
The text on the website ⬆️ seems to indicate that placing the Apache 2.0 license text in a
LICENSE
is sufficient for a project. The text given in the text file ⬇️ does not mention a LICENSE file and instead seems to imply that the full text of the Apache 2.0 license is not required, but use the "boilerplate" after swapping out the placeholders.Looking at other high profile projects that use the Apache 2.0 license it looks like their understanding matches mine, here's Rust https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/fda68927475070696fcc9d1f5c9c990f0e1af87a/LICENSE-APACHE. Here's a discussion from 5 years ago on whether to remove the appendix from there rust-lang/rust#67734.
