After re-reading the 2023 thread, I think it would be weird to simply stop doing the grand-replace without having a newly designed system of copyright notices: We're in a state where the files contain copyright ranges of the form X-Y where X is the year the file was created (which is certainly fine) and Y is the last year somebody did the grand-replace - which is a bit arbitrary. So, it seems easiest to just make sure that Y stays as close to now as possible, i.e. keep doing the grand-replace every so often. Also, I'm not sure who might be willing to invest the work necessary to do the transition to another system of "legal boilerplate". Lukas
