But since the copyrights on a joint work are held by
all the copyright holders jointly, the fact that the
writer said "Please use your own copyright notice"?
shows that he does not mean to create a joint work as
defined by copyright law. I doubt that many people who
are not knowledgeable in copyright law know what the
meaning of a joint work is, so the writer is most likely
using that word in its English, not legal, meaning.
