Because we all know that the first thing a person is doing when submitting a change is to update the copyright year. So we have either the option to: * not update it at all (as in many kernel sources) * don't have it listed explicitly (as seen in other kernel sources) * update it once a year I personally like to have a simple solution so I don't have to deal with this kind of details while doing interesting things. The current "solution" was to handle the copyright notices year for the whole project as one entity - once per year and then ignore it for the rest of the year. And I would also prefer not to start a discussion about the differences between the inalienable German Urheberrecht, pre 1989 anglo-american copyright, post 1989 anglo american copyright and other copyright like laws.
