my hunch was that we should have some symbol that is shown together with the program name to indicate that a program is requesting a registration. That symbol should appear (in my mind) as consistently as non-annoyingly possible together with the package names.

Fine. This seconds Michael's (?) objections towards an extension of the debian/* files for such non-technical meta-issues. >> Is there speaking much against such a pilot?

I am not aware of the Remark field, but maybe this would be compatible with somthing analogous to --- bio (Revision 1027) +++ bio (Arbeitskopie) @@ -18,7 +18,7 @@ Depends: arb, clustalw | clustalw-mpi, clustalx Why: Sequence alignments and related programs (Non-free, thus only suggested). -Depends: adun.app, garlic, gdpc, ghemical, gromacs, pymol, rasmol, autodock, autogrid, r-other-bio3d +Depends: adun.app, garlic, gdpc, ghemical, gromacs, pymol, rasmol, r-other-bio3d Why: Molecular modelling and molecular dynamics.

And similarly there could be a "Pkg-Reference" for instance, or "Pkg-Publication". I don't know about how close such information needs to be to the package. Both belong rather to debian/copyright than to debian/control, but either could be parsed to present the information to portals like that of Debian-Med.
