Hi all.

Erick: Why you simply don't put the list of copyright holders and
years in each file?.  If there is a good reason we can discuss it here
and reach a good solution.

>(About copyright collecting) OSI debated recommending this practice
>in 2003 [...]

The OSI is about open source, true?.  GNU project isn't about open
source, but free software (See
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.html).
When a organization says some thing about open source, it may or may
not apply to free software, because they are differents set of
project, and different philosophy.

Also, please note that the software here hosted must call itself free
software, and refer to the GNU/Linux OS as such (Is in the
requirements agreed when registring a project in the "I agree with the
hosting requirements" check box:
https://savannah.gnu.org/register/requirements.php).  When you say
"Linux-based smartphones" are you talking about the kernel, correct?.

BTW, I don't think that "Worrying about copyright enforcement is
pretty silly under a BSD license" is silly, specifically if the clause
3 "The name of the author may not be used to endorse or promote
products derived from this software without specific prior written
permission."  is violated.  Some Copyright holders not care about
violations of their Copyright, but that don't makes copyright
enforcement _silly_ IMO.
