Re: [docbook-apps] DocBook XSL 1.78.1 copyright status
A copyright date does NOT change in individual modules simply because a new release has been issued. The copyright date would be changed in individual supplied code modules to include a year e.g. hyphenated such as 2010-2103 if minor changes occurred to the module during those intervening years. If on the other hand major changes were made that warranted the need to set a new baseline for a copyright, that is when you would use a comma delimited date such as 2010- 2012, 2013 On Mon, Sep 22, 2014 at 9:06 AM, Jirka Kosek <> wrote: On 22.9.2014 16:59, Andy Hatton wrote: > The distribution includes the COPYING file, which includes various > copyright statements.

Nothing changes, simply no one dared to update dates. Next release will fix this and will state: Copyright (C) 2005-2014 The DocBook Project (with very high chance that in 2015 we forgot to update again :-) Jirka -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Jirka Kosek e-mail: http://xmlguru.cz ------------------------------------------------------------------ Professional XML consulting and training services DocBook customization, custom XSLT/XSL-FO document processing ------------------------------------------------------------------ OASIS DocBook TC member, W3C Invited Expert, ISO JTC1/SC34 rep. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Bringing you XML Prague conference http://xmlprague.cz ------------------------------------------------------------------
