We can't. What we should probably do is come up with a list of exceptions (Henry Spencer's regex library, e.g.) and a script to find all non-exception copyright notices. This will help us keep the copyrights in the code base to the standard we set. I can even see this becoming a commit- or push- hook. :) Cheers, David. -- David Fetter <da...@fetter.org> http://fetter.org/ Phone: +1 415 235 3778 AIM: dfetter666 Yahoo!: dfetter Skype: davidfetter XMPP: david.fet...@gmail.com iCal: webcal://www.tripit.com/feed/ical/people/david74/tripit.ics Remember to vote!
