Yea, but so will thousands of blog posts on the subject ;)

Honestly, one rarely needs this - in all my years as a package
maintainer I may have looked at this maybe 4 times..

Yea, but in the case of packaging, the wiki pages are up to date and
pretty much official. If there's something you can't find in
Category:Packaging, it's going to be an extremely rare one off and then
you shoot an e-mail to the devel list.

The wiki can be improved, yes - there's so much disorganised
information there that it often takes a while to find things if you
don't know the general region :/

Again, if you have specific ideas to improve things, I can pass them on
to the right people :)
