netbeans is in contrib because of jruby. Once jruby goes into main,
netbeans can follow.

If you or anyone else wants to switch copyrights to this format, be my
guest. I'll switch once this format becomes finalized and a part of
official debian policy (if that ever happens).

If you want to know why I state the above, just go ahead and read the
rather long thread about this format over at debian-devel. In short,
I'm perfectly happy with a copyright file that is readable by a human
(i.e. readable by me) and acceptable to an FTP master.
