Hm, adding everyone seems a bit tedious, and I don't see a real reason for some small change (what about my mass-commit of X-Vcs-Browser fields from yesterday?); and what in the case of e.g. libemail-localdelivery-perl where Niko has added no packaging copyright stanza in the initial package and I just upgrade it? I think if we need a "rule" then it must be a simple one, like "Copyright $year The Debian Perl Group" or "Copyright $year $Uploaders" (what about an svn post-commit hook? *g*). > > Ok, and then there was libnet-amazon-perl: > Uploaded.
