👍🏼 about updating the copyright owner(s).

About changing the year: I learnt recently that “doing this is useless at best, and misleading at worst”. I understand the new legal entity “inherits” all IP from the old hosts? If so, I recommend you use either 2015 (the date of the first commit here) or even the year when the original WBS code was started (since that's the base for the redesign on this repo, right?).

I have changed the copyright notice according to @koalie's proposal
About changing the year, I don't know what is the right or most used policy, let's discuss it separately.
