I have a vested interest in that all my packages are format 1.0, and I'd be interested in uploading signatures for them. OTOH I can also just wait a year.
I have a related question though: if upstream ships a binary signature, e.g. https://www.x.org/archive/individual/proto/xproto-7.0.29.tar.gz.sig how should that be handled on the debian side? gpg --enarmor the file and ship the result as orig.tar.gz.asc, or is there a better way? Cheers, Julien
