Slowly... somehow I have the wrong source here, then our m68k machine on the net is down and my i386 machines dont run potato and I am waiting for a final comment from the author.

Excellent guide!
Ok, two questions, I installed emacs at home, nice mode for editing the changelog, but where do I get "dch" from which you mention in the guide? Next, imagine I have access to a potato i386 machine and want to upload the source as well as m68k and i386 binaries (its a more advanced topic, I dont blame you that its not in the new maintainers guide :-). How do I create my changes file then other than by hand? Ciao, Christian.
