I'm asking to jdg and other devscript developers if is it possible to support some official excuses in the watch file (and uscan) for example: version=3 debian-native or for any other offcially precoded excuses. For not to cc anymore to everybody we want to follow this disccusion on debian-devel or debian-qa? Cheers, Stefano -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
