Copyright for contributors



Hiya mentors,

when upstream copyright text explicitly state the "contributors", like [1]:

    Copyright (c) 1998 - 2009, Paul Johnston & Contributors

what should I write at License: in d/copyright?

I could think

    License: 1998-2009 Paul Johnston & Contributors

or just

    License: 1998-2009 Paul Johnston

Which one will make sense?

I know that contributors are not necessarily copyright owners [2], but
in this case?

Thank you!
