I've pushed my proposed debian/copyright changes. Dominic and Andrew,
please check and/or update your part.

Quoting:
 
  The parts of the Debian packaging by Niko Tyni, particularly
    debian/scripts/rt-setup-database-debian
    debian/scripts/rt-wrapper-debian
    debian/scripts/test-database
  are 
    Copyright © 2007-2008 Niko Tyni
  and licensed under the same terms as the software itself.
  
  Based on the debian/changelog entries, other copyright holders for the
  Debian packaging are
  
    2003-2004 Sam Johnston
    2008-2009 Andrew Ruthven
    2009      Dominic Hargreaves
  
  It is assumed that all other copyright holders of the Debian packaging
  have licensed their work under the same terms as the software itself.
  
I don't think we need to bother Sam with this but YMMV. The packaging
I inherited was mostly just the standard debhelper rules, not sure
if there's any copyrightable content left. See ee36fc7c7 in the git
repository.
