Would the stewards please set a policy for two things?

* The exact wording of copyright notices for DCO contributions:
  (C) or no (C), year or no near, The or no The.  I do not care
  what we use, but it should be consistent with GCC.  I'm
  slightly in favor dropping the year, so that we don't have
  to update it.

* Copyright header for locale data.  Stating that the FSF disclaims
  copyright when they are not in a position to do so is *very*
  misleading.  Our DCO process does not require that the author
  disclaims copyright on locale data contributions.

Thanks,
Florian

gcc is using "Copyright The GNU Toolchain Authors" in all its source 
code and glibc code has "Copyright (C) The GNU Toolchain Authors".  Our 
contribution checklist mentions the gcc way and (AFAICT) all of the 
notices in glibc were added by me, so I'll fix them up to "Copyright The 
GNU Toolchain Authors".

I (and maybe one or two others) added a (C) to the copyright notice
regardless of the contribution checklist[1] not mentioning it.  Fix all
these instances so that the notice reads as "Copyright The GNU Toolchain
Authors" across the source code.
