If I do cordova create to generate a project the generated www code includes Apache copyright/license statement. I would rather see the template code under CC0 or public domain license, or a statement that Apache Cordova does NOT assert copyright and license on the generated code. (If I generate a project with Xcode, it seems to mark the code with copyright to my own name.)

The app template project is https://github.com/apache/cordova-app-hello-world, which is an Apache Software Foundation-owned project that is required to follow ASF policies. That includes having the Apache license in every source file and in every human-readable file included in a distribution of the project.

I'm not sure what options there are for project templates, but it is currently the case that the hello-world template's files are themselves an Apache Software Foundation distribution artifact.
