Yeah i got two, one from FSFE that says 

"Not legal advice: There should be a note stating there was a change. In
practice I have noticed that many source files tell people to look at a
changelog, and the changelog lists the changes (name, brief note on
change, date)."

while the FSF says

"In order not to make this overly burdensome, you need only add a one
line, simple notice. So if you modified a file in 2008, you can add
something like this (you can add any extra information you wish):

Copyright (C) 2008, Albert Astals Cid <aacid at kde.org>"

I'm going to do either one or the other for poppler 0.10 (next major version)
not for minor versions as i need quite time to dig all the appropiate people
that sent contributions.

Is that OK for you?
