Subject: Incorrect format of copyright statement for Fortran manuals
Date: Sat, 05 Jun 2010 13:02:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LSU.1.99.1006051241030.436@acrux.dbai.tuwien.ac.at> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: TEXT/PLAIN, Size: 747 bytes --]
It has been reported via the FSF that 'gfortran.info' is copyrighted by
the FSF '1999-2008', although it should be under the form '1999, 2000,
[other years], 2008'.
Indeed the GNU Coding Standards say the following:
Do not abbreviate the year list using a range; for instance, do not
write Β‘1996--1998Β’; instead, write Β‘1996, 1997, 1998Β’.
And a quick grep finds the following:
gfac-internals.texi:@set copyrights-gfortran 2007-2010
gfc-internals.texi:Copyright @copyright{} @value{copyrights-gfortran} Free Software Foundation,
gfortran.texi:@set copyrights-gfortran 1999-2010
gfortran.texi:Copyright @copyright{} @value{copyrights-gfortran} Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Would you mind changing this accordingly?
Gerald
