Research direction

Start by reviewing the main LICENSE and the sub LICENSE files in the source tree, then compare their copyright owners with the corresponding source files. Clarify which owner each file should name and ensure the license files are consistent; the issue does not identify specific paths or a definitive ownership rule.
