the data itself are facts and as such not copyrightable. But the 
compilation of the data might be protected by copyright. As I don't have 
any idea what these data are and how they have been created, I have 
to assume that they need to be mentioned in debian/copyright.
Please add a comment if you think that the assumption is wrong.

I don't think so. The maintainer gets an email about the reject, the 
uploader and probably even the sponsor. So all people involved in that 
package are informed.
Of course, you can always send a patch for dak.
