Hi Copyright years should only be updated when there is a material change. For example, suppose foo.el was authored in 2010 and not touched. Its copyright year should stay 2010. If foo.el then get's updated in 2025, it's copyright year would become 2010-2025.
We could probably automate this. A small utility invoked from make could look at the git history of sources and validate/fix the copyrights. I'm somewhat familiar with how to do this, but have a backlog of items I'd like to get to. Perhaps, for now, we just manually update them when the are touched.

I can do that but I am wondering whether the Makefile could take care of that. Then: We still have (defconst matlab-mode-version "5.0" "Current version of MATLAB(R) mode.") Shouldn't we upgrade at least to 5.1? 😉 I also plan to merge the cell-mode and later the org-mode branch into default. Then we definitely should jump a bit up on the version numbers -- I strongly condemn Hamas heinous despicable pogroms/atrocities on Israel I strongly condemn Putin's war of aggression against Ukraine. I support to deliver weapons to Ukraine's military. I support the EU and NATO membership of Ukraine.
