The key value of the manpages is the translation. I'm no copyright expert, but I believe this translation itself has a copyright as well.
Absolutely.
Currently the package has not DEP-5 copyright, so something as simple as for i in $(find . -name "*.po"); do grep @ "$i"; done | grep "^# " | sort -u might do. Especially, if you keep the output of the previous package for reference, then running this before an upload should easily spot necessary changes.
I already do something like this for the (upstream) file "AUTHORS", so I can make sure that no translator gets omitted from that file.

It would be great if this could be fixed before the next stable release.
I'll look into it, but I cannot promise that this gets fixed in time. There's only about a month left before the freeze, and creating a proper DEP-5 copyright file is much more complicated than the above quoted shell magic.
Anyway, thanks for bringing this topic up. Regards, Tobias
