Let's say I want to initiate publication of some source code under an open-source license like Apache or MIT, but I know that I'm only the Creator of the source code in its initial form, and I'm unlikely to be the one who maintains it long term. I just want to get it out there and make sure it's free for others to use per one of these licenses.What do I need to do as far as copyright statement? Do I need to put my name or company down in order for the open-source license to apply? Is there a way that source code can be published anonymously, or without a designated owner?Alternatively, if I put my name or company down, can this ownership be reassigned later?
does correctly applying an open-source license require designating a copyright holder?
