[Secure-testing-team] restructuring embedded code copies

Hi,
I started restructuring the embedded code copies file 
because it has become very chaotic over the time and I think 
it can be well structured using a similar format as in the 
CVE list.

I converted the xpdf entry to the new format:
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/secure-testing-commits/2007-December/008048.html

The format I used for now is:
<srcpkg> (<optional comment about srcpkg>)
        - <embedding srcpkg> <status> (<sort>; bug #<number>)
        NOTE: optional comments about the linkage of the embedding srcpkg

status: version number fixing the embedded copy, <unfixed> or <unknown> if the version number can not be determined
sort: static/dynamic

Improvements are welcome, what do you think about this format, what could be better?

If no improvements come I will go ahead and convert the rest of the list to the new format
if I find some spare time.

Kind regards
Nico
