  find . -name copyright.htm -exec sed -i .BAK s/2010/2011/ {} \;

Of course, a purely automated replacement of the year without making any other 
change is likely considered "de minimus" from a copyright perspective.  You'd 
need to make a more substantial change involving some original content for this 
to be genuinely meaningful....
