+  # To update copyright notices annually
+
+  # Source files are so few that it's expedient to treat them manually
+  # by editing all files in
+  #   /opt/lmi/proprietary/.
+  #   /opt/lmi/proprietary/src/
+  #   /opt/lmi/proprietary/hooks/
+  #   /opt/lmi/proprietary/test/ChangeLog
+  # and adding the current year to each copyright notice, using an
+  # expression such as
+  #   /Copyright/s/201X/201X, 201Y/
+  # (of course modifying the 'X' and 'Y' years)
+
+  # Regenerating XML product files in /opt/lmi/data updates their
+  # copyright notices automatically to show the current year.
+  # (Historical years aren't necessary for these generated files.)
+  # To produce the same effect in the proprietary repository,
+  # run a command such as the following (of course modifying the
+  # 'X' and 'Y' years):
+
+cd /opt/lmi/proprietary/data/
+for z in *; do sed -i $z -e'/Copyright/s/201X/201Y/'; done
+
+  # and compare to the regenerated set in /opt/lmi/data
+
+  # Use the same command to update rate tables similarly:
+
+cd /opt/lmi/proprietary/tables
+for z in *; do sed -i $z -e'/Copyright/s/2016/2017/'; done
+
+  # and regenerate the binary database.
+
+  # Files in the test/ subdirectory (except test/ChangeLog treated
+  # above) need not be updated: they aren't distributed and need no
+  # current copyright notice.
