As well as there being external projects who's licenses we might miss,
there are functions in files which are copied from other open-source
projects.
The ones I'm aware of have comments above the function stating its
origin, but there isn't a good way to get an overview on who owns this
copyright across many files.

How about use the debian copyright format? (human and machine readable).
