I'm not sure about our current policy and how it applies to the docs anyway. Are the generated docs a complete document with one copyright? Does every
document have its own?

IMO the sum of all docs represent a single publication with a single copyright date which should be based on the latest change (think of a book) and since we don't place any copyright dates into single files anymore (as we did with the old license header [1]) I think we're good with updating it now...

Though we might also want to update NOTICE [2] to carry the new date (seems it wasn't updated yet for the releases in 2007, see my mail to dev@) and maybe simply keep the docs in sync with that one ;-)

Cheers,
Erik

[1] Just compare the license headers in the following two files to see what i mean:

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/tags/2.2.2/include/ http_main.h https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/tags/2.2.3/include/ http_main.h

[2] https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/NOTICE
