how do you determine who is a copyright holder? Is it sufficient to look
at those who added themselves to a copyright notice? Or may there be more
copyright holders to a file than those listed in that notice -- and might
they have contributed their work with that additional disclaimer as well?

I am no copyright lawyer though...
