[mojo-dev] [jira] (MLICENSE-95) Include copyright year range, not just inception year

[Curtis Rueden (JIRA)]

Curtis Rueden created MLICENSE-95 Include copyright year range, not just inception year Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 1.6 Assignee: Tony Chemit Created: 08/Jan/14 12:59 PM Description: The new BSD templates (and maybe the MIT one; I didn't check thoroughly) put only the inception year, not the whole copyright year range, at the top. Legally, it is preferred to use the copyright year range [1]. This behavior would also be consistent with license-maven-plugin's update-file-header goal, which uses a range. [1] E.g.: http://magnumip.com.au/copyright/copyright-dates-single-year-or-range/ Project: Mojo's License Maven Plugin Priority: Major Reporter: Curtis Rueden
