Yes, and a committee of lawyers that determine whether a given
contribution warrants adding its author to the source code file(s)

I saw OSS projects with the list of authors in each file, in the boilerplate header.

In other projects like

  https://github.com/zeromq/libzmq/blob/master/src/clock.cpp

they resolve more in you way, telling simply

    Copyright (c) 2007-2016 Contributors as noted in the AUTHORS file
    This file is part of libzmq, the ZeroMQ core engine in C++.

Then every year I suspect they have an utility extending the year range.
