Hi Gregor, the problem is that these instructions are vague, because there is one layer of common sense applied on the top of them. See for example: In many packages there is more than one author, more than one copyright-holder and more than one license. Do not miss to list them all, even if that other license is just for one file. Yes, any single file is important. This is not accurate. For instance, is tolerated to not list the license and copyright notices of the autotools build scripts. I welcome this exception and others, but in addition I think that it would be crucial have them documented. (Or the whole instructions changed, as I propose on debian-vote).
