How do you update copyright notices?
- by James
So now it's 2011, and as I carry on coding on our active projects it's time to update some copyright notices.
eg. Copyright Widgets Ltd 2010 to Copyright Widgets Ltd 2010, 2011
My question is when do you update the copyright notices?
Do you change the notice in the head
of a file the first time you work on
that file?
Since a module is one
piece of code consisting of many
files that work together, do you update all notices in
that module when you change a single
file in that module?
Since a program
is one piece of code (maybe
consisting of many modules), do you
update all notices in that program
when you change a single file in that
program?
Or do you just go through
and change en-mass over your morning
coffee on the grounds your about to
start programming and updateing things?
