All LICENSE files (including the rtf's in the windows bundles) contain the incorrect copyright date of 2003. *This does NOT affect JRE bundles! or /jre folders in JDK bundles!*
Here is some evidence from the self extracting bundles :
:"/net/lion/export/home/jdk/1.4.2_08/fcs/b03/binaries/binaries" 95 $ grep 2003 linux-i586/*
linux-i586/LICENSE:information: Copyright 2003, Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights
The part of the LICENSE in question is the "SUPPLEMENTAL LICENSE TERMS" section "E".

Grep'ing for 2003 in all bundles reveals the same error. I have also checked a windows jdk exe, solaris jdk pkg, and linux jdk rpm to further confirm.
