copyright. The Sage project claims copyright on the Sage standard
documentation for each year the project is active.
So does this mean the copyright has already expired then, since we are in April

I'm not a lawyer, but I doubt this is legally necessary. I just did a search of
the GCC source tree and find 34235 copyright notices that do not include the
year 2011. Clearly the FSF don't seem to take this matter seriously.
