I don't think we actually need to update those? Anyway, copyright rules are generally "life of the author" + 20-70 years in countries signing the Berne convention; an older notice isn't actually changing how long your copyright lasts, and older might be better.

Your explanation makes sense; thanks for having mentioned that convention. I didn't know about it.
