    1) Currently, we have a Copyright notice both at the top and bottom
       of each NEWS file.  Isn't the notice at the end sufficient,

Please keep them both.  It costs very little.

    2) Years in those "top" and "bottom" copyright notices are
       out of sync in at least some of those files.

Please do make them agree.

    3) Shall I add 2006 to all of the NEWS.* files, even if we didn't
       change them (except for chaning the name)?

It probably does not matter.
