Then, I don't understand why we have this discussion _after_ the policy
has been changed...
I thought the policy was a trustable document, where developers could
find guidelines for their work, it seems that it's not always true. Sad.

In the meantime, do you suggest to use lintian overrides for fixing this
in webapp packages or purely ignoring the lintian complaints?
I hope we can solve that issue soon, it's pretty confusing for maintainers.
Kind Regards,
Alexis.
