Status of restoration of copyright statements to the man-pages source files?

Alejdandro,

What is the status of restoring the removed copyright notices?

At the end of June we concluded with the following:

Hmmm, it'll take some time.  I need to stop and compare the both lists,
which are rather long.  I don't promise it will happen soon, but I'll
keep it in a TODO list.  I'll also try to do it at least after
September, when I'll be meeting Michael in person, where I'll ask him
about his copyright notices (which represent a huge percentage of the
copyright notice lines).  That will reduce the work significantly.
So, it might happen around the end of this year.

Once I start doing that, I'll do another round of asking the remaining
people about their copyright notices.  Hopefully, there'l l be few of
them.

Carlos.
