OK, obviously I have a version of org-export-latex in my distribution that still has the old copyright. Will fix this. Sorry for all the trouble. Thanks to John for trying to take this off my shoulders. I will try to do this again myself in the future - which means that the Emacs version will lag behind. We have something like a 2 week release schedule, synching up with Emacs is extra work for me, and with the next release a year (?) away, I am not sure it is very useful to spend the time. Again, thanks and sorry, to whom it may apply. - Carsten
