License header

The license header looks like the following part:

 */

The copy right line on to should contain the people that managed contributions during that year. Adding the suffix " and others" in case the contributions are not only from themselves. In case of "and others" the last section of the license header gets extended by how contributed to that file:

 * version 3 along with openSCADA. If not, see
