soelim(1): Revise copyright notice.
Ratchet back ending year of FSF copyright notice to 2006, reflecting the
date of the most recent "legally significant"[1] contribution to this
file by anyone who has executed a copyright assignment with the FSF,
which was commit f6aacde822, 2006-08-25, by Werner Lemberg.
Add a copyright notice for myself. I contributed "legally
significant"[ibid.] changes to this file in 2021-2024, and have not
assigned copyright to the FSF.
Justification (year, commit ID, summary, net lines added by commit):
2024 f539e5df1d [soelim]: Fix Savannah #66027. [+21]
2024 89283b0935 Make more commands' exit status 2 on usage error. [+15]
2023 a9767ace3d [man pages]: Define page-local `MR` fallback. [+15]
2021 33a01056a9 soelim(1): Heavily revise. [+71]
2020 7eca9c3c6d soelim(1): Fix style problems. [+65]
(Bernd Warken's commit c1886fcaa3, 2014-09-18, is a sadly complex case.
It added 31 lines net, which would be "legally significant". Its
summarized purpose is to "improve the license information", but the
committed change does not restrict itself to that task. It also adds
comment banners and empty requests and makes other cosmetic changes,
like changing the locations of input line breaks without altering the
text around them. I think the balance of the analysis is solidly
against significance, but a good commit discipline relieves maintainers
of having to undertake such.)
