Consider stating the copyright holder of the project

What is the expected enhancement?

At the moment, it's not clear to me from an sdist who the copyright holder is for the purposes of the Apache 2 licence, making it somewhat unclear "who" should be attributed. The only metadata in an sdist of the package is that Matt is the author, but this possibly isn't a fully accurate representation of the state or the intended state.

The Apache 2 licence file suggests putting this notice of copyright somewhere in the project:

Copyright [year] [copyright holder].

but I couldn't see an equivalent anywhere here.
