Yes that's fine. I guess this involves setting the `COPYRIGHT_YEAR` variable in `make/autoconf/jdk-options.m4` to a value derived from `SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH` (with `SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH` having the priority over `--with-copyright-year` or the opposite?), and then pick the value of `COPYRIGHT_YEAR` in `CopyrightHeaders.java` and `EquivMapsGenerator.java`, right? ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/1498
