I'm going to change the copyright years throughout the sources... Expect a

Just to know : why do copyright years have to be updated on existing files ?

Really, I don't know... But I've always done since Jserv times... I don't
know if there's some legal requirement for it... It's just something I got
"accustomed to"...
At least wrt the Italian (and most european law, AFAIK), the idea is that copyright expires after a certain amount of years. So a source file with copyright 1999 will expire 4 years before a 2003 one. Not a big deal, I don't think that anyone will really care around 2070, but you never know. :-)

But don't trust me on that. Although IAAL, I haven't exercised for way too long to be accurate.
