Xiao Chen commented on HDFS-9629:
---------------------------------
Thanks [~vinayrpet] for the comment!
As Akira mentioned:
bq. I thought that we can set the year dynamically by showing the year when the
source code is built. However, it is not a good idea because if you get a
source code released in 2016 and built it in 2017, the UI shows 2017. It is
confusing.
I understand that generally we want things to be as automated as possible. But
I don't have a strong opinion in this case, mostly because I'm unsure what's
the best practice for these year info with the trademark.
One step back, looking at the Apache license header in java files, we don't
even have year info in there...
> Update the footer of Web UI to show year 2016
