Bug#859776: rejection

[Paride Legovini <pl@ninthfloor.org>]

[Note for whoever lands here: the package has been rejected from NEW
because of unattributed files in lua/lexers].

Hello Adam,

I didn't realize that some files in lua/lexers were not fully attributed
in debian/copyright. Regarding those files: there is one main author
(that is attributed), then many single-file contributions from about 40
different authors.

Should I list all these authors in debian/copyright, or can I do like
it's done for the Linux kernel:

Files: *
Copyright: 1991-2012 Linus Torvalds and many others
License: GPL-2

hence writing:

Files: lua/lexers/*
Copyright: 2007-2016 Mitchell <mitchell@foicica.com> and many others
License: MIT

What do you suggest?

Paride
