This isn't a "copyright transfer", but if you just write "(C) me"
without anything else then you haven't given any license for anyone
else to use it. If we put a uniform copyright statement everywhere,
then this gives reasonable assurance (as in: we got away with it so
far) to everyone about the nature of the license and such. Your name
is still on record, so you are still the copyright holder under law.
