(C) is not a valid symbol for copyright, but that doesn't make the template wrong. "Always use the English word “Copyright”; by international convention, this is used worldwide, even for material in other languages. The copyright symbol “©” can be included if you wish (and your character set supports it), but it's not necessary. There is no legal significance to using the three- character sequence “(C)”, although it does no harm." [http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html] -- Nicolas (I read mailing lists through Gmane.
