Shouldn't we have some range : 2022-2023 ?
There was a discussion on this in the first spins, I think to
remember that Nina wanted 22 and Thomas 23,
now we have a third opinion :) .
I must say that all three have their reasons and I take what the
majority wants.
There is an internal IBM document describing the copyright tags. If I
recall
well, first date is the first year the code was officially published,
second
year is the last year it was modified (so last commit of the year). Or
something like that and it's theory, because we tend to forget.
For an example, see the OPAL FW https://github.com/open-power/skiboot/,
and run :
"grep Copyright.*IBM" in the OPAL FW
OK for me, it looks logical, and all three of you are right then.
So I will use
Copyright IBM Corp. 2022-2023
You should use a comma instead of a hyphen as per IBM policy.
I.e. 2022, 2023
OK, thanks.

Pierre
