It solves at least this Lintian warning:

If you really want to keep the old copyright file, you should add "Copyright 2001-2014" somewhere to get rid of the warning.

And the actual upstream changelog ('NEWS') is saved as changelog.gz, instead of the deprecated changelog file. The rest is basically to reduce the code in debian/rules and probably a matter of taste.

That new format is easier to handle though, i.e. if you want to copy patches or do similar things. But again a matter of taste I guess.
