Hi,

The format of this file seems a tiny bit different than what current
spec says.

In the darcs repo:

  Format: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/dep/web/deps/dep5.mdwn?op=file&rev=135
  Upstream-Name: foo
  Upstream-Contact: Jack Upstream Developer <upstream@example.com>
  Source: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/foo
  
  Copyright: 1970, Jack Upstream Developer
  License: foo license
   This is the text of the foo license.
  
How it should look like (IMHO, based on docs and lintian warnings):

  Format: http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/
  Upstream-Name: foo
  Upstream-Contact: Jack Upstream Developer <upstream@example.com>
  Source: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/foo
  
  Files: *
  Copyright: 1970, Jack Upstream Developer
  License: foo license
   This is the text of the foo license.
 
  Files: debian/*
  Copyright: 1970, Joe Debian maintainer
  License: bar license
    ...

Thoughts? Shall I update the file? (once my alioth request is approved,
that is :)

thanks,
iustin
