i wonder whether it's worth following curl's example on this and just
get rid of the years [1]. seems needlessly tedious to maintain…

Quote form that text:

> We own the copyrights no matter if the years are stated or not.

It is easy to claim such things, but is there some reliable proof?

i am not a lawyer, but as is mentioned in the linked article the berne
convention [1, 2], that seems to govern international copyright laws,
grants authors copyright without any formalities:

> The enjoyment and the exercise of these rights shall not be subject to

That is the point. I am also not a lawyer, but I see that almost everyone else keeps the year in the copyright statement.

And all GPL licenses contain a section called: "How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs". And that suggest to include the year (while not explaining what year that should be).
