Hi,

I developed the CDBS licensecheck2dep5 wrapper mentioned by Reinhard, 
and would like to both integrate those, merge with the other patches in 
this bugreport, and develop licensecheck further.

I have requested membership of the devscripts team, and am in the 
process of subscribing the the mailinglist now.

Hope you are fine letting me work on this.  And thanks to Reinhard for 
pushing me out of my cave :-P
