> While working on reproducible builds for openSUSE, I found that
> building the maven-compiler-plugin package in 2034, claimed copyright for 
> future years.
> One simple fix could be to instead use the mtime of some file that is 
> unlikely to be touched during build (e.g. ChangeLog). Or just use a constant.
> A copyright 2019 will remain correct and effective even in 2050.
