Bump copyright years to 2019. by benjaminp · Pull Request #11404 · python/cpython

@benjaminp It would be interest have a the way to make the copyright year automagically, isn't?

I mean, for example use SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH to made it reproducible or use time.time().

Could we stop making these updates to years in copyright statements? they are eventually creating a burden on anyone that reuses Python code as the license is updated. It is also kind of silly to me to have the Python license text change each year.

I would make a plea for year-less copyright. The expiration of these copyrights is something that's not driven by a year mentioned in such notice anyway.
