I'm far from being expert here, but I think ftpmasters care more about licenses and dfsg-freeness instead of copyrights. As long as the license is dfsg they are fine, specially because in the *worst case* the license will be dfsg, in the best case it *might* be public domain. So, in every case we have a "good" license (Debian-wise, I don't personally like GPL-3+ and I prefer GPL-2+) Gianfranco
