[thelist] Copyright "rules"

[russ at unrealisticexpectations.com]

Thanks, but I am not certain that addresses what is considered to be the
appropriate placedment of a standard copyright (c) <year / year-range> on
the inside of an applicaiton or any sort of standardization around that.

It certainly does for Creative Commons and their own tools, but I'm
looking for specific usage of the US Copyright.  It seems that there
should be sort of usage rules for "how" to display a copyright so that
every time a developer outputs a final build of an application (non-web),
that an item on a checklist says to ensure that the copyright is <current
year> or <start year - current year> or something similar.

Perhaps I'm being dense and not seeing it?
