The rule I always followed is that a new file has only the Copyright
year of the current year. Otherwise, if each specific bit of content
counts one would have to track back the year each appeared in the
repository or just guess (often wrongly) and add also years predating
its existence. That said, I have no problem with changing the rules I
followed so far...
