Change copyright notice so yearly updates are not needed

nicoddemus · nicoddemus · commit ed24f29e6017 · 2021-11-30T09:28:23.000-03:00
Just learned that we don't need to do this every year: https://hynek.me/til/copyright-years Followed Go's example of only stating the starting year: https://github.com/golang/go/blob/master/LICENSE Btw any ideas why the dates vary? Some start in 2004, others 2013, 2015... shouldn't be the same year for all locations?
