        Don't delete old year numbers, though; they are significant since they 
indicate
        when older versions might theoretically go into the public domain, if 
the movie
        companies don't continue buying laws to further extend copyright. If 
you copy a
        file into the package from some other program, keep the copyright years 
that
        come with the file.

I wonder what their rule is when transfering copyright older than the legal
entity.
