We used to do something similar all over KDE's various code based, e.g. "Copyright (c) Kxyz team" At some point we got legal advice that this is not a very good idea unless the Kxyz team is infact a legal entity. Unfortunately I don't remember any details. As a data point from my KDE checkout: I found ~65 occurences of copyright statements which either user "contributors", "developers" or "team" in roughly 19k header and source files, most of them around 10 years old.
