I've also seen more than one note (in books on the topic) that "(C)", since
it is not the required symbol, can damage the notice.  (The word "Copyright"
is unambiguous).

As for the contributions of various people - it's perfectly reasonable to
have various copyright notices appear on the pieces.  You're describing a
collective copyright on Lynx (for which you probably should seek advice,
since you have to address the contributed parts).
