All mentions meaning the original creator.

If you remove it in the original license, it means to me and everyone else looking at it that you have moved on as original Bitcoin and this means something significant.

I meant there are still several mentions of Satoshi in many files, see link.

Actually my bad, it's not in the COPYING file in the original 0.1. It seems it was in the readme.txt file. https://github.com/Maguines/Bitcoin-v0.1/tree/master/bitcoin0.1

Yes, I know. I just wanted to state it in their COPYING file, which is where the licence goes in the original Bitcoin release. It is a long time ago it was taken away as far as I know. This is just to awaken the ones coming in the last years.
