I personally think my proposal to add more licenses to
/usr/share/common-licenses is unrelated to embracing a tool that
simplifies the creation of debian/copyright. The central question is:
"Do we really need to duplicate license texts in debian/copyright or can
we just reference them in /usr/share/common-licenses?" This would
already be simpler and save more time, even without using a tool like
cme. I'm not against it but it should be discussed in a separate bug report.

Regards,

Markus
