Actually I think it's defined by US law - you enter the year(s) in which you edited the file. Copyright does expire X years after completion of work (currently, X = 70 IIRC), so with each edit you push the expire date one year off.
AFAIK, IANAL etc.

Every good solution is obvious once you've found it.

Re: [SOLVED] What license
Based on Wikipedia, it seems that the US copyright term is 120 years after creation, or 95 years after publication, whichever is shorter. However, it can also be (I don't know how it would be decided) 70 years *after the death of the last living contributor*. In that case, when hell freezes over. Most other countries have similar but usually shorter systems.Solar wrote:Actually I think it's defined by US law - you enter the year(s) in which you edited the file.
