As for emacs-w3m and others I update the copyright years on a file
only when having changed it for the first time in the year. But
Emacs people seem to have been updating it at the beginning of
every year regardless of having been changed or not. And as for
those changes I worked as an engineer to merge changes made in
Emacs and Gnus mutually (I've also updated some extra files, e.g.
gnus-xmas.el and friends, though).
I used to feel Emacs' way strange. Maybe updating the copyright
years of Walt Disney's works every year is nonsense. But Emacs'
way is alike to it. What is TRT?
