There are still a few historical authors who never signed on to the relicensing of OpenImageIO from BSD-3-Clause to Apache-2.0 two years ago, usually because we could find no current way to contact them. The few (< 25) files that still had their extant code were therefore marked as using both licenses. They they almost always are down to just a few lines in the whole file that are still original to those authors (and therefore BSD), so every once in a while, natural code churn and rewrites of what they touched remove the very last of these lines from a file, leaving that file entirely Apache-2.0. I noticed that this was the case for these three files, and so removed the reference to BSD license, which no longer applies. Signed-off-by: Larry Gritz <[email protected]>
