These changes are only adding the year 2010, to the copyright for
files modified in 2010.
The "first" year should be preserved.
The pattern "YEAR1, YEAR2," in the Oracle copyright line is the
equivalent of the old Sun
copyright year range "YEAR1-YEAR2".
So if the file originally was created in 1995, and was last modified
in 2010, it should say "1995, 2010,".
Not sure I understand your question. Rebranding sources isn't
something that generates too many smiles. :^(

Hello Kelly,
Shouldn't the original copyrights remain in place? I see there are
changes that remove Sun and replace it with Oracle on files from
1995. I would expect that code with changes should include the
additional copyright for 2010.
Sincerely,
John Yeary

Need reviewer: OpenJDK7 2010 copyright year changes
Any sources changed in 2010 need to have their copyright year
adjusted.
Script used is in the top repository at make/scripts/
update_copyright_year.sh.
It finds all changesets created in 2010 and verifies that any
sources with
copyrights mention 2010 adding it if necessary.

The webrev tool created some false 'file adds', not sure whether
this is a webrev
bug or a /bin/sh problem on Solaris, but these changes only impact
the Copyright line.
Easiest to just view the 'hg diff -U 0' results for each repository
impacted:

This does not include hotspot. I'll be asking the hotspot team to
deal with that separately.
I know this is a mindless and tedious review. Sorry.
