Use years range in copyright notice
From GPL howto:
For software with several releases over multiple years, it's okay to
use a range (“2008-2010”) instead of listing individual
years (“2008, 2009, 2010”) if and only if every year in the range,
inclusive, really is a “copyrightable” year that would be listed
individually; and you make an explicit statement in your
documentation about this usage.
