INTRODUCTION
Success or failure in business is decided by strategy, the ability 
to implement it and leadership qualities. Strategic decisions always aim to 
secure the longer-term, future viability of a company or company area. They 
show 
the way forward, and in doing so must be flexible enough to allow adaptation to 
changing conditions. In addition, they define the roadmap on which a company 
must travel to achieve its objectives. If the strategy is unclear, or the 
roadmap not practical, success is not achievable – and the result is often 
operative activities where the company as a whole stalls or goes in circles. 
Strategy expertise at executive level, therefore, determines whether commitment 
to the daily business is rewarded with good results – results that the company 
is proud of and that motivates staff to further top performance. Nonetheless, 
even the best strategy and the most intelligent guidelines won’t help if 
mistakes are made during implementation. That’s why good strategies are always 
made by leaders with a solid leadership skill. Whether, and to what degree, 
their staff is motivated to achieve strategic objectives depends on how they 
conduct themselves as leaders. Clear objectives, sensible guidelines and the 
right management conduct creates the freedom a company needs for controlled 
entrepreneurship. This in turn creates the prerequisites for sustainable top 
performance and first-class results that will secure the future of your 
company.
Strategic 
Management for Executives: The 
success of a company and its business units depends on a few strategic 
decisions. This program offers you the latest knowledge and an integrated 
approach to strategic management. You will learn from many real-world examples, 
have an exchange of experiences, get new ideas, and learn the tools you need 
for 
successful strategic management.
Strategy 
– and 
not effort and diligence in the daily business – determines success or failure 
of your company, your division or the business unit you lead. In this course, 
we 
show you what’s important in navigating and developing strategy in the 
direction 
of success and sustainability.
How 
you benefit
This course will give you detailed knowledge about strategy with 
the goal of better understanding the principles, tools and methods of strategic 
management and strategy development and how they interrelate to the whole. You 
will receive the latest know-how about developing innovative, competitive 
strategies. You will learn how to position your business in a competitive 
environment and how to launch programs that will optimize your company’s value, 
profitability and performance. You will critically analyze your own strategic 
concepts and will

I already sent a mail like this in the past, but...

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=950585#30

This approach is already in use in the archive, but not
yet for the kind of artefacts that you are talking about:

https://codesearch.debian.net/search?perpkg=1=dpkg-distaddfile
https://salsa.debian.org/ftp-team/dak/raw/master/config/debian/dak.conf (search 
for AutomaticByHandPackages)
https://salsa.debian.org/ftp-team/dak/raw/master/daklib/upload.py (search for 
byhand_files)
https://salsa.debian.org/ftp-team/dak/tree/master/scripts/debian/

I think this would not require anything except a new dak config stanza
for AutomaticByHandPackage and potentially a patch to dak code or a
script. Seems unlikely it would require changes to anything other than
dak plus the packages that want to opt in to using it, so should be
completely doable within the bookworm release cycle.

If you want to have some way to automatically download the data, then
something like apt-file and Contents files could be done, I expect that
would also be able to be done for the bookworm release and also be
possible to put in bullseye-backports.

You could even include all the build logs and build info in the same
data set, and potentially modify the package build process so that
build logs for maintainer built binaries end up there too.

Something like this would be my suggested archive structure:

Release -> Builds-amd64 -> foo_amd64.build
 \ \-> foo_amd64.buildinfo
  \--> foo_amd64.buildmeta.tar.xz

Or since the buildinfo files are similar to Packages/Sources stanzas:

Release -> BuildLogs-amd64 -> foo_amd64.build.xz
 \ \-> BuildInfo-amd64
  \--> BuildMeta-amd64 -> foo_amd64.buildmeta.tar.xz

This could be in the main archive, or a separate debian-builds archive.
