Hello, I just caught up on the .orig.tar thread and wanted to note to everyone:
- tag2upload final development, in accordance with the plan agreed with ftpmaster, is proceeding nicely. We are writing integration tests for everything, and almost have an end-to-end test of the whole thing, with its three different nodes. - tag2upload will improve the situation with .orig.tar because the tag2upload server will always ensure that the uploaded source package is prepared using an .orig.tar that dak will be happy with. It won't matter what you're using locally for, e.g., the purpose of feeding sbuild. So, teams and individual maintainers that switch over to tag2upload will be able to forget about a lot of this stuff. -- Sean Whitton
