Not that I know of. Besides, debian/copyright file, the only other things I know are:
- spdx: a norm to collect legal information about software
- fossology: a huge software used to scan license and copyright information

yes, it would be possible to generate the copyright file from the collected information.

> fiel format

yes, besides the links I sent before, you have more details of the used syntax 
there:

http://search.cpan.org/dist/Config-Model/lib/Config/Model/Loader.pm#load_string_syntax

I now realize that this doc could use some examples.

All the best
