I'm sure the Sun Lawyers who change the format every couple of years could do a better job of explaining it than I. But my own personal take is that a file is considered copyrighted (in the US) in the last year that it was modified, and thus the file should reflect that. I don't think there's a significant problem if this isn't followed, but given that it's not terribly hard to do, why not?
