Thanks.
I've made a list of packages with missing licenses. I still found the errors.txt too cluttered (list packages with non-(L)GPL license and for both arches) so I just used the abs tree on x86_64. Some i686-only packages might be missing but I'll add them later as there's plenty to do for now. The list : http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/User:Snowman/License_Rebuild_TODO
Just add your name beside the packages you plan to do. Better take a dozen or so at a time. Once they're done, remove them from the list. If they cause problems (soname bump, doesn't build/work, etc), skip them and replace your name with a note explaning the problem. You can try to find a patch or a fix but don't spend too much time on that. Better focus on the easy ones for now. We'll deal with the problematic ones later.

Can I just take t* for starters, please? That's about 13 pkgs and seems as a good a set as any.
