Package: devtodo
Version: 0.1.20-2
Severity: important

Hi!

I am the upstream author of the todo2xhtml_css XSLT trasformation.
Current devtodo ships with todo2xhtml_css v0.6 (but I already requested
an update with wishlist bug #470705).

I noticed that the debian/copyright file of the package is rather
incomplete.  This file currently just states:

| This package was debianized by Arthur Korn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on
| Tue, 20 Mar 2001 20:24:53 +0100.
| 
| It was downloaded from http://swapoff.org/DevTodo
| 
| Upstream Author:
| Alec Thomas <alec.at.swapoff.org>
| 
| Copyright:
| GPL version 2, see /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL2 for the full licence text.

This does not comply with Debian Policy, which requires a complete
verbatim copy of copyright notices and distribution licenses.
See
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs.html#s-copyrightfile

The current debian/copyright misses copyright and license notices from
my todo2xhtml_css XSLT trasformation and its associated default CSS
stylesheet.
It possibly misses similar information from the other XSLT
transformations, as well.
Moreover it fails to properly quote the copyright and permission
notice for the devtodo program itself.

For a guide on debian/copyright file drafting, you may take a look at
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2003/12/msg00007.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2006/03/msg00023.html

In alternative, you may follow the new proposed machine-readable
format for debian/copyright files:
http://wiki.debian.org/Proposals/CopyrightFormat


Please fix the debian/copyright file, while you update my
XSLT trasformation to v0.9 (as requested in wishlist bug #470705).

Thanks for your attention.
