Why is the copyright notice *after* the documentation?

In the old documentation system the extractor only supported
docs in the leading comment so the notice *had* to be later.
Now it is just a convention.

Can we change that? :-) ...or at least change the documentation to make it clear that it is a convention and not / no longer mandatory?

(For UseShiboken.cmake, I'm going to leave the copyright first... if that means the doc - which is RST anyway - can only be extracted with CMake ≥ 3.x, then that'll just have to do ;-). I'm not "comfortable" with the leading doc effectively "hiding" the copyright statement and wouldn't be in the least surprised if upstream were to reject having it follow the initial doc.)

Thanks for the clarification,
