While we are at it, could you *please* drop the ugly "REL-*" directories for the next releases? Those directories make automatic retrieving of GNU tarballs from ftp.gnu.org *much* more complex, as an exception has to be made for sharutils. In particular, Debian "watch" files (which, together with the "uscan" tool, may be used to know that a new upstream release is available) become more difficult to write (if they may still be written at all). If you think ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/sharutils will have too many files, consider putting the diffs in a special directory, but having each tar.gz in a different directory is a real PITA. Really.
