I am not sure if I understand you correctly.

If you modify a file, I would recommend to modify the CDDL header to point to 
something neutral that still exists. This is why I use 

	http://www.opensource.org/licenses/cddl1.txt

If you like to be sure, I also recommend to mention CDDl version 1.0 only.
If you don't change files, I do not recommend such a change.
