Dah, I see. > But... is there anything particularly wrong with the whole document? :) I think most of idea was summarized within debian-doc folks. I think this content has to be review by following people in the order. 1) debian-www and debian-sgml folks 2) debian-devel 3) debian-policy Can either of you to send a "request for comment" to those mailing list? I know this "policy" has too much "best practice guides" than enforced "policy". But this should help promote consistency across documentation. Totally different but kind of related subject. Current package control field does not have explicit information on language/locale and encoding. What happens if we include those at the end like "Task:"? I think we will need to have these for filtering packages in our future.
