Hi Karl. > 2) Ranges in copyright years are not allowed. Each year must be written > out. This sucks too.
That's also not completely true. If you're talking about US copyright law, then it's possibly true. Under UK copyright law, the opposite is true: If copyright is claimed for more than two consecutive years, then they MUST be specified as a range to be legally valid. > Here's the example from bison. > > /* Subroutines for bison > Copyright 1984, 1989, 2000, 2001 Free Software Foundation, Inc. Note that the listed years do not include three consecutive ones, so this is valid in the UK.
