Seems very right to me. But I would like to add the following to it. When mainstream is updated, hello-1.3 -> hello-1.4 Non-usual-maintainer updates, hello-1.3-8 -> hello-1.4-0.1 Usual-maintainer updates, hello-1.3-8 -> hello-1.4-1 Usual-maintainer should never use -0 for revisions. And if we agree on this, it should be mandated in the manual. Erick sorry for cc
