Hey, since 2006 already! http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=commitdiff;h=2a577fa2027dc966eadcdd71a9b5f6e699f89165 Such a good news, and I missed it for 3 years! > Would anyone object to my mass-updating all > FSF-copyright year lists in gnulib to include 2009? > (of course, I'd exclude files that are still > in sync with originals elsewhere) No objection on principle, from me. The 'update-copyright' module works fine for me in most cases. But it has no testsuite, therefore it may surprise us. For example I note that $ build-aux/update-copyright < lib/gc-gnulib.c gives a warning. So, just show the diffs, so that people can see whether they have objections. Bruno
