I cannot provide a validator, but I'm working on a python-script collecting all the necessary information from a source tree and preformatting it in this format. Unfortunately I'm a python-beginner, so the script doesn't work yet as I would like it to work... But as soon as it approximately does, I can put it on wiki.debian.org/JanBeyer (somewhen during the next days hopefully), so that people with better python skills can improve/comment it...
Maybe this might be a help for you, too. Regards, Jan PS: Just to avoid some possible negative comments: This script is NOT intended to produce a complete debian/copyright, but only a skeleton, which still needs to be checked and refined manually. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
