Hi, Most direct would be to just update the GPLv2 or later part and the adress info. Hoverer I had a look in Emacs and it seems like the copyright notice there has introduced some small but nice change. An url to where the GPLv3 or later text can be found. So there is no need for the street address. So using that notice and changed for XEmacs it could look like this. Would it be OK to use this or do we need to spell it out some other way? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This file is part of XEmacs.

Is this correct? (Not ot mention that this also makes it easier slightly easier to update the notices since there is one thing less to change.) Finally. When the notices are updated overall there is no point in keeping different formatting, justification of the text etc in files of different types. So I suggest that the copyright notice is written like this above regardless if there are leading comment character. Like this for files in elisp. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ;; This file is part of XEmacs. ;; XEmacs is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it ;; under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the [...] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OK?
