After all I do not care about the copyright year in the header of source files. We had this change last year, so I proposed the same for this year. But I think we should update the copyright your at places where it is visible to users. This is the information displayed with `openvpn --version` and the repository's README file. Are you willing to accept a patch for these? Are there more places this makes sense? -- main(a){char*c=/* Schoene Gruesse */"B?IJj;MEH" "CX:;",b;for(a/* Best regards my address: */=0;b=c[a++];) putchar(b-1/(/* Chris cc -ox -xc - && ./x */b/42*2-3)*42);}
