New projects and copyright

I don't understand the page at:
 https://wiki.linaro.org/Copyright

I've put the new Toolchain WG web tools up on Launchpad so that others
in the group can get it.  It needs a README (fine), license (EPL
apparently), and copyright statement.

I'm paid by Canonical but work for Linaro.  The Copyright page says
that new work is (C) Canonical and then the copyright 'flows' to
Linaro.  What does this mean and how do I achieve it?  What copyright
statement should be on the work and where?

At a different level, how do you apply the EPL to a project?  What
text should I have in what files to record the license and copyright?
Is there a standard way of doing this?
