I don't understand this change:

There's not a single change that has been done in config.bat in the
years 2003 and 2005.  maintain.texi says (in node "Copyright
Notices"):

       To update the list of year numbers, add each year in which you have
    made nontrivial changes to the package.

So why add to config.bat years that didn't see any changes in that
file?

Btw, why isn't this change reflected in ChangeLog?
