This is because DEP5 is not finalized yet. When its inclusion into the debian-policy package is final, the official copy of the spec will be at a URL that will be like this: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/copyright-format/1.0 When this is ready, there will be an announcement on debian-devel-announce and every other Format: URL will need to be amended. Until then, use whatever you feel best like. The spec suggests something like this: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/dep/web/deps/dep5.mdwn?op=file&rev=REVISION which seems like a reasonable thing to do, since it documents what version of the spec the file is written against. -- Freedom-based blog/wiki/web hosting: http://www.branchable.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
