Cool! I was thinking about my fontilus package today, and I realized that at least conceptually, the GNOME VFS method could be used without nautilus and such. So I think we should have something in the Debian GNOME policy about GNOME VFS methods to standardize this. Since you didn't post the docbook source, I'll just take a stab at it in plaintext: GnomeVFS Methods Any GnomeVFS methods included with a program should be packaged separately, with just the necessary shared library and the GnomeVFS module configuration file. If a package provides just a single method, it should be named like "gnomevfs-method-<prefix>", where <prefix> is the URI prefix that the method provides. If a single upstream source package provides multiple methods, it may either be packaged as "gnomevfs-methods-<name>", where <name> is the name of the upstream source, or it may be split into multiple individual packages as above. What do you guys think?
