Well, you can if you require a particular format, but the main obstacle to both checking it in the control file and checking it in the copyright file is that not every package *has* an upstream author or upstream source. So it's not something that can be enforced uniformly. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
