Hi, Thanks for the response!
I chose Native consciously as nmbs is written explicitly and exclusively only for Debian. In particular, it fits statements in the docs e.g. here: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-source.html#s-source-packages > A native source package is one that does not distinguish between Debian > packaging releases and upstream releases. A native source package contains a > single tar file of source material, and the versioning does not have a > Debian-specific component. Native packages are normally (but not exclusively) > used for software that has no independent existence outside of Debian, such > as software written specifically to be a Debian package. The package/project implements interoperable standards. If somebody wants this support on another system (e.g. Windows) then they can (and should) write it using the tools and libraries best supported on that system (e.g. C# .NET with their XML libraries). ADatP-4774 and 4778 are relatively small standards. Supporting cross platform is in this case (in my opinion) more effort and less beneficial. If you still feel that native is the incorrect format, could you please help me understand why? Kind Regards, Luke
