I’ve noticed a couple of different ways of writing subsequent copyright
lines, e.g.:

  Copyright (C) 2005 Somebody <email>
                2006, 2007 Somebody Else <email>

  — http://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/WebCore/svg/SVGSVGElement.cpp

and:

  Copyright (C) 2005 Somebody <email>
  Copyright (C) 2006, 2007 Somebody Else <email>

  — http://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/WebCore/svg/SVGFilterElement.cpp
