The Copyright field in DEP-5 is now a freeform text field (rather than line-based) to address the problem that some copyright statements are longer than one line. That means that it may make sense to apply the wrapping rules of Description to it, so if you don't want all the copyright statements flowed together, you should start each copyright statement with at least two spaces (to mark it as non-wrapping). -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
