How about transferring the copyright ? Will that be necessary ?

If not, how about creating a special field in the READMEs which must
accompany every upload to the FTP server which states if the software
may be distributed on your distributions ? That should help a lot
to automate the process.

Also, you might want to do the same for the software on the CVS
server (non-GNU software, that is. Everything GNU can of course
be distributed without any restrictions except that you must
include the sources :-)
