Sorry... deleted the post I am responding to too quickly...
The question was whether there was a program to bring the files up to date.
Why? The code was written, and copyrighted, at the time that it was
submitted. Unless the code has been completely re-written, the original
copyright date applies.
After all - you wouldn't want somebody to say that PostgreSQL copied
them, because the date was later, would you? :-)
Cheers,
mark
