Apache 2.0 license with JetBrains copyright in Ignite repository.

Vladimir Ozerov
Igniters,

As a part of continuous intergration process we need to add several
JetBrains .cpp and .h files to our repository. Here is the license header
from these files:

/* Copyright 2011 JetBrains s.r.o.

 *
 * Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License");
 * you may not use this file except in compliance with the License.
 * You may obtain a copy of the License at

 * limitations under the License.
 *
 * $Revision: 88625 $
*/

On the one hand, it is Apache 2.0 license. On the other hand, it has
JetBrains copyright. Is it fine to add such files to our repo from legal
perspective? If yes, are there any additional actions required (e.g.
mentioning it in LICENSES.txt)?

Thanks.

Vladimir.

It's of course OK to put this in to the repository and to distribute it.
You have to add an entry in NOTICE mentioning the copyright, but don't
need anything in LICENSE since ALv2 is already there.
