Sorry, I am not convinced. Again, I am reluctant to add a new option to xgettext for a niche feature, without good reason. Do you have any practical reason for that? My reasons for preferring (4) to (3) are: - we could give more control to users, for example, inserting arbitrary text other than copyright notice - we are already using sed in po/Makefile.in.in, as in en@quot rules - having multiple --copyright-foo options doesn't seem to play nicely with the feature supplying COPYRIGHT_HOLDER from autoconf (bug 764483) - that fits better in the Unix philosophy, which suggests to accomplish larger tasks by combining small tools Regards, -- Daiki Ueno
