Steve,

That's good.  I have a question though I don't want to be too picky but 
do the notes have to begin with the "Notes:"?

Below is an example of a different type of note.  Do I keep it as is?  
If the answer is yes then I would assume that almost any text could 
appear between the author and the copyright.

 * Project:  MapServer
 * Purpose:  Functions copied from GDAL's CPL.
 * Author:   Y. Assefa, DM Solutions Group (assefa at dmsolutions.ca)
 *
 * This file contain utility functions that come from the GDAL/OGR cpl
 * library. The idea behind it is to have access in mapserver to all these
 * utilities, without being constrained to link with GDAL/OGR.
 * Note : Names of functions used here are the same as those in the cpl
 *         library with the exception the the CPL prefix is changed to ms
 *         (eg : CPLGetBasename() would become msGetBasename())
