Are you refering to the following clause?

    To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is
    safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most
    effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should
    have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full
    notice is found.

Does this only refer to source files or does it also apply to the
debian/copyright file?  What do you think?

Do you know what was the rationale for this?

Well, let's first make sure we get it right.

All the best,
Jochen
