You mean, changing Copyright (C) 1999, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc. to Copyright (C) 1999-2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc. ? It's allowed by current FSF rules, but the fact that the FSF did not want it for 15 years does not give me a comfortable feeling. Rather, I fear that, with a small percentage probability, the rule may change again, in the opposite direction. So I would prefer to wait for 1 or 2 more years before doing that. Bruno
