NOTICE file says:

Is this still correct?

The release was spun on January 4th of 2012 and there were 4 minor changes
made between 2012&  the release.  Based on prior discussions on this list,
minor changes don't seem to be a blocker [1].  Additionally, I have
created a JIRA ticket for updating the copyright date on all NOTICE files
[2].

[2] :  https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAVE-439


Besides this being a minor and certainly non-blocker issue, a similar question came up just last week on legal-discuss@ where the question was if every copyright statement would need to be 'bumped' to adjust for the new year. Greg Stein provided IMO a nice and clear (follow up) answer about the importance of how and when to do this [3]:

  Actually, the shorter answer is "get it close, but don't worry about it."
 (per a lawyer friend of mine)

  What you put in the header is advisory. If you end up in court, it has zero
  impact compared to the actual commit history that demonstrates it is your
  work. "Your work" is the operative issue; not when you happened to do that
  work."

So I see no reason at all to worry about these now.

And, for the record, none of the NOTICE files in this release themselves were modified since 2011.
