We don't modify this file in any other repo. Is this something that we should do?

I think we don't need to modify the LICENSE file

@bogdandrutu I don't think it hurts to have it fixed. Definitely looks better without the placeholder

Do you know if other projects do the same? Or this should be a standard format?

It's a placeholder that is often overseen. I don't know the legal implications but the intent of the placeholder was clearly to be replaced :)

Actually reading it again - it is a license text that tells how to apply this license. So it should stay generic with the placeholder.

I think you are right, @SergeyKanzhelev. While there are projects that filled it out, like https://github.com/istio/istio/blob/master/LICENSE#L190, the majority hasn't.
