We had no formal agreement on any format. I'm okay with doing so once we have a real formal format, but this isn't the case. Discussions and commits to change copyright lines just for the sake of making them look more uniform have a bit of the bikeshed paint feeling. I hardly see a point in changing someones copyright line just for the sake of a (C) or a ©. If we as a group can come to a consent about this, then I'm okay with whatever the outcome will be. Then again, it is just one symbol.
