licensing - Forking google code project which doesn't list any copyright information -
there project hosted on google's project hosting has gone inactive, , fork under different name, , include within library i'm working on. google project states published under gpl v2, (google project hosting requires choosing license create project), , library i'm working on under same license.
however, within project's distributed source, distributed binaries, , source code within svn, there no mention of copyright or license blocks.
i retain copyright information required under license, there no copyright information retain. should leave out , put own license block without copyright clause in it? should add copyright line ? should put line stating no copyright information listed in original source?
i'd book as possible.
add own copyright notice consistent gpl v2 license , reference original source.
really though, if old code stated gpl , fork gpl, don't think going care nitty gritty details this. it's try right thing, reasonable undoubtedly suffice.
