Hi! The sc_copyright_check in maint.mk won't handle a copyright notice spanning multiple lines. For wdiff I'll likely disable that check for this reason, since keeping 9 years in a single copyright line for the texi file doesn't agree with my own ideas of readable sources.
It would be great if you could come up with some solution which does that check but takes copyright lines spanning multiple lines into account. Probably a perl script, I guess. I dimly remember some discussion about perl for syntax checks: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/28103/focus=28257 Did anything ever come out of this? Doesn't look that way to me, but I don't closely follow the list. Greetings, Martin von Gagern
