Question

I am contributing to a library that is licensed under the MIT license.

In the license and in each class file it has a comment at the top saying:

Copyright (c) 2011 Joe Bloggs <joe.bloggs@example.com>

I assume that he owns the copyright to the file, and can change the license of that file as he sees fit.

If I contribute to the library with a new class entirely write by me, can I claim copyright of that file. And put:

Copyright (c) 2011 Petah Piper <petah.piper@example.com>

at the top?

No correct solution
