+1.

I suggest a small rewording in the new policy:

"that happens to miss it" -> "without one"

And a new bullet point that spells out the big change:

- Otherwise do not change the copyright header when an existing file is 
modified

One other question: should we change existing date ranges to single 
years when the file is modified?

I support removing all dates from copyright headers; I will be 
interested to see the legal advice on this matter obtained by OSGeo.

Kind regards,
Ben.
