C0D4644186yIt's been updating its self since 2003, some of us are to lazy to do deployments at midnight. - 
				
				@Jilano also legally that is how it should be. Copyright goes in the year the design is made not the year it is at that moment.
I once had a lawyer tell me that technically automatic updating year numbers are not allowed because one cannot see when it was originally posted. - 
				
				
LMagnus20316y@Codex404 footer year isn't always a copyright year.
I'm fairly sure many of the dates on footer years we're talking about are not a registered copyright date. - 
				
				@LMagnus then what is the point of the footer year? Everyone knows what year it is right?
 

did you update your footer year?
