No in general there is no automatic way of doing this. One way is to look at 
all of the copyright statements in the previous release and compare with the 
ones in the currently release, That can be be scriptable to some extent. But 
take care asoften scripts written to deal with licenses issues like this miss 
things manual inspection will catch.

It’s best to correct these when the code is updated / new code added not at 
release time.

Thanks,
Justin
