Hi All, This is a heads up notice, all files in jdk repositories which have been updated in 2012, and have not had the copyright year updated, are now doing so. All other repositories have completed this chore and we've saved this largest for last. Individually, each of these changes is trivial to update the copyright year in the copyright header, however, there are many of them.

A first push to jdk8/tl over the weekend will update 2000+ files. Once this is in master and down in jdk8/awt, the script will run again to update the remaining 1000 or so files.

Once these first large pushes are completed, periodic updates through til GA should be of a much smaller size and much easier to deal with.
