+# Check copyright notices in the COPYRIGHT and LICENSE files and issue a

+# Specifically, look first for COPYRIGHT and then LICENSE in the root

+#
+# Then in each file look for the first line matching the:
+#
+# ^Copyright (\([cC]\))? ...
+#

+# 2011", "2010-2011", and their combinations; see the pattern below for
+# details). Specifically, we don't consider Copyright notices that:
+#
+#   - don't start at the very beginning of a line (indented, etc)
+#   - contain something other than years prior to the last year (names, etc)
+#   - wrap over multiple lines (long year list, etc)
