As some have noted to me off-list, an address is not
required in the (c) notice. The address is required
for other reasons and the (c) notice is just a clean
place to put it. (Or at least that was the thinking up
to now!)
> I know that (c) notices are not required,
> nonetheless
> I advise clients to put them where appropriate to
> serve as notice and to protect against those who are
> not aware that notice is not required.
>
> Recently a client/friend moved and therefore would
> like to update all of their (c) notices on packaging
> to change the address. For new products this is a
> simple update. For existing packaging this is a
> nightmare.

> One way to make it easier would be if all of the new
> notices just said "(c) 2005 Company, address."

> This
