 In the developer documentation, in the section
 [http://sagemath.org/doc/developer/conventions.html#headings-of-sage-
 library-code-files Headings of Sage library code files], there is an
 example heading stating
 {{{
 #*****************************************************************************
 #       Copyright (C) 2008 YOUR NAME <your email>

 #*****************************************************************************
 }}}

 I think this should be changed to state the ''version'' of the GPL.  The
 current wording is maybe not technically wrong, but adding the version
 would certainly clarify things.
