My votes would be the same. As an addition, I would like to propose to get
rid of the distinction between copyright in the header and copyright in the
implementation. IIRC, it's currently no blank line between copyright and
header guard but one blank line between copyright and includes in source
files. This is just arbitrary nonsense that I didn't even remember which
way around for the longest time. I'd vote to make it one blank line after
the copyright regardless of where the copyright is.
