Yes, but first, please take care of these minor gotchas:

> +Add the new year in the copyright notice of all source and documentation

I think "notices" (plural) is more correct here.

> +files. This is done semi-automatically by running the @code{copyright.sh}
^^
Two spaces after the period that ends a sentence, please. Also, "This
can be done" is probably better, since we don't want to _force_ use of
the script, do we?

> +script. This script requires emacs 22 or later to be installed.

Emacs should be capitalized here.
