Interestingly, this list does not fully overlap with the result of a search for
"The Artistic Licence 2.0" using OpenGrok.

http://walrus.rave.org/source/search?q="The+Artistic+Licence+2.0";

This said, I would like to add my voice to say that since there are good
reasons to think that the Artistic license 2.0 will become a common license
some days, even if it takes a few years, it would be kind to add it in the
common license list in advance, to save the maintainer's time from adding it to
debian/copyright now and removing later. 

Have a nice day,
