I don't know if Steve Sides is on this mailing list but he recently 
submitted a number of bugs requesting that the copyright date be fixed 
up on files modified in 2013. I think there are several thousand files 
that need to be updated. I don't think it is critical to do before the 
jdk9 "split" but something to consider in case it would make live a bit 
easier to get this over with. It would require someone to run the 
update_copyright_year.sh script over all of the repositories and get it 
into master before b120 is tagged and maybe there isn't time for that.
