And BTW, didn't Richard say many months ago that legally speaking,
years should be spelled as whole? I mean, shouldn't that be:
Copyright (C) 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 [etc.]

Spelling the years out also looks much better.
Trying to keep the copyright notice in one line by randomly dropping
the first half of years is not a scalable solution. :-)

We could spend a long time discussing what is needed, but I think Thi's idea
of creating a file spelling out the requirements (preferably endorsed by a
copyright lawyer) is a better one.
