But if you go on to the end of the section, it says that for --help output (which in turn feeds the man page): "Sometimes a program has an overall copyright notice that refers to the whole program. It might be in the README file, or it might be displayed when the program starts up. This copyright notice should mention the year of completion of the most recent major version; it can mention years of completion of previous major versions, but that is optional." Thus, there is no reason for the man page output to list all years; it is sufficient (and compliant with GNU Coding Standards) to list only the year of the current release. > [1]: https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html > As such, I'm closing this as not a bug. -- Eric Blake, Principal Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc. +1-919-301-3266 Virtualization: qemu.org | libvirt.org From debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Mon Jun 04 13:00:50 2018 Received: (at 31694) by debbugs.gnu.org; 4 Jun 2018 17:00:50 +0000 Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1]:33574 helo=debbugs.gnu.org) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.84_2) (envelope-from ) id 1fPsqg-0001DS-Hp for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Mon, 04 Jun 2018 13:00:50 -0400 Received: from mail-wm0-f50.google.com ([74.125.82.50]:33058) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.84_2) (envelope-from ) id 1fPsqe-0001DC-KT; Mon, 04 Jun 2018 13:00:48 -0400 Received: by mail-wm0-f50.google.com with SMTP id z6-v6so14458145wma.0; Mon, 04 Jun 2018 10:00:48 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=20161025; h=mime-version:sender:in-reply-to:references:from:date:message-id :subject:to:cc:content-transfer-encoding; bh=zIwr1plgG2QN71fNv2Aem3/B6VlsLotihC6P77/AMZ8=; b=KDUEyEXX/xYYoUww8DK/CXpFIO/NetRp2avXphjY+wyiVniD7t05lldIgS3kMhL7jJ 2IuBKq9nx9Am9BvBpxLcQwJLLoiXb0CNL3fNIrH4fmOxnq4SZHCzapdO10LJYhBZ8Pvo CGitiTowlBVdOynK9I7/japU+axdSWa8TIf7nWjAauzgm04nht4hekf+ueO9AO0VFlSG a6oN45FO21uA9Y3kYH2WQlKqckwT3ZdXV1T29AN7lGOQB93MiTOt+3UVxYdekm6Z7htu 3+8ItXGwWN7AhIizGGIU845CMtewjlmrmVdlfOeD5Awx+ZwBqjlzgRQ0QwOdBgtWBeD9 KEGw== X-Google-DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=1e100.net; s=20161025; h=x-gm-message-state:mime-version:sender:in-reply-to:references:from :date:message-id:subject:to:cc:content-transfer-encoding; bh=zIwr1plgG2QN71fNv2Aem3/B6VlsLotihC6P77/AMZ8=; b=SPcCBB0LimliRXOOTJpImMJA44HcroMsnUbX+VhPl0OXCmn87rdUzN6d0IoW4CcJug zyQ4ZTGNboTSeq1W+x4V0OY09tADPwWkSG5CKk14mbOEmWM8ly8LrYGCuvCKCSFNkBlK h2WUxSrSkG+k7hOKkjtEcX1tIIU5lyaGmcOO0d/qHpLnmTuISzKb9pRMCM4XLKl7hI7V 9+CMcxIgOka9RFRdBqqvF4gCQKzR5dOGXejKbB494DByfzwDbtYccuqgtjf2VTeEB7eU Xc/UXEyTNqYPdRjyjFXNSaj7bLp9CnGchApKDxnBYAmCGYQvy5r6rBY6U5bQGs+31HFE +tiw== X-Gm-Message-State: ALKqPwe6Bok8iLjhAsYpHJX4kEDZIX2EUwlDwdvX5dgSnNQjhgSkwXqH 8n1Cok5DaJc84glNo2UxZaA5FK6pZE59OSZpL5o= X-Google-Smtp-Source: ADUXVKKsDKW89fJJ9ohJ9PXcAdRgtxqKAaTty/mHbWsjX6h3mhRLjTXWK5rCXGO5w7LTHG8TTBAupxj/DTYREvmCmOc= X-Received: by 2002:a1c:2703:: with SMTP id n3-v6mr9212927wmn.109.1528131642120; Mon, 04 Jun 2018 10:00:42 -0700 (PDT) MIME-Version: 1.0 Received: by 2002:adf:ff42:0:0:0:0:0 with HTTP; Mon, 4 Jun 2018 10:00:21 -0700 (PDT) In-Reply-To: <3bb89fea-8ffd-b2e4-04a0-bc881f619544@redhat.com> References: <603e0665-7662-2a56-796c-02bea57007a1@peers.community> <3bb89fea-8ffd-b2e4-04a0-bc881f619544@redhat.com> From: Jim Meyering Date: Mon, 4 Jun 2018 10:00:21 -0700 X-Google-Sender-Auth: YnMLvsWo_G7gpii-XWUnYy1KB2A Message-ID: Subject: Re: bug#31694: man page copyright notice To: 31694@debbugs.gnu.org, Eric Blake , bill-auger@peers.community Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable X-Spam-Score: 0.5 (/) X-Debbugs-Envelope-To: 31694 Cc: 31694-done@debbugs.gnu.org X-BeenThere: debbugs-submit@debbugs.gnu.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.18 Precedence: list List-Id: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Errors-To: debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Sender: "Debbugs-submit" X-Spam-Score: -0.5 (/) On Mon, Jun 4, 2018 at 8:59 AM, Eric Blake wrote: > tag 31694 notabug > thanks > > On 06/02/2018 05:43 PM, bill-auger wrote: >> >> i noticed the copyright in the sed man page has "Copyright =C2=A92017 Fr= ee >> Software Foundation, Inc." >> >> according to GNU policy[1] it should list each year that some >> modification was made > > > Actually, GNU policy is that _source_ files should list years that a > modification was made (either to that file alone, or a range of years tha= t > any file in the project was modified even if that particular file was not > otherwise modified; the range option being a lot easier to produce). ... > As such, I'm closing this as not a bug.
