Looks fine though you missed updating the copyright date on the test.

Recently I form a new habit of not touching copyright years at all, so
that a changeset can be ported to another version with no change at all.

Ok, so does that mean someone else will update the copyright later on?

This comes up from time to time, and I've never seen a definitive answer ( unless the answer is do whatever you like ;-) ).

There is a script in the repo [1] for updating the copyright year, that is run occasionally. I typically leave it to the script to take care of the updates, but occasionally take it upon myself. I don't think there is a hard and fast rule here, but I stand to be corrected.
