It should be reverted. Also, for blank years, it looks like we would use
2005,2008 if there were significant changes in 2008.

On IRC:

<blairzajac> what's the policy on bumping copyright dates? we only do so for
significant changes to the file and do we do 2005,2008 or 2005-2008 even if
there were no changes in 2006 and 2007?
<cmpilato> blairzajac: only for significant changes, yes. but i don't think we
leave gaps.
* cmpilato may not be remembering correctly, though.
<Arfrever> blairzajac: Rather 2005,2008.
