Hi Andreas,
the file debian/copyright shall contain all copyright information from
upstreams files. We don't have to be better than upstream but we also
should not add information where we think upstream might agree. Of course
we can tell upstream that there is a problem. Lluis commendably did this
with his PR. Until this is settled, a comment would be great.

I am not sure why you think there is a discrepancy. go_spec.html was
created 2011 (at least the header says so), so it is not wrong to state
2011-2012 in LICENSE. It might be questionable that upstream is the only
author of that document but than at least the debian/copyright is
incomplete.
Anyway, one year difference between the information in LICENSE and
information in file headers (especially if there are files with no
information at all) are not a reason for a REJECT.
