We could also think about not updating the current year because it doesn't seem to be necessary: https://hynek.me/til/copyright-years/

Thanks for sharing this. My original thought was that derivative works can appear and use your copyright in 2022 and say that you didn't have/claim the copyright this year hence, giving permission for anyone to use the copyright with no claim.

Yes, that's apparently not how it works.

Still, seems neater to me to have it updated.

As opposed to not updating? Sure! As opposed to not including any years? Nope, I'd prefer that. But I'm fine with either solution because at least we don't include this in all of our files.

thx @stevemats
