This really has no urgency at all. I've done the update for GDB and we are good for another year. Also, I am trying to get the OK from the FSF to merge all copyright year into one single range (even if some years are missing in the middle). That would ensure that all the "copyright ... FSF" line would fit entirely on one line. Not sure if this is going to be OK or not, but I'll ask. In the meantime, the GDB project adopted year ranges in the copyright notice as you recommended, and so the number of files where the length of the copyright line will change should be quite reduced. So, the GDB project itself should be relatively covered, and this patch is mostly for the benefit of other projects. I'd like to see it through, if that does not unnecessarily complexifies the script. -- Joel
