Hi, at first thanks Magnus and Frank for the hint to find a documentaion only package to look at. Finally I managed to get working packages, that install mbox-archives of mailinglists under /usr/share/doc/mailinglists
(by the way: is this the right list for questions like this? If not just tell me which one is better :-) But some questions still remain (indeed I haven't read all new maintainer and policy doc yet, but quite a bit already): By now each package installs his files in /usr/share/doc/mailinglists/<listname>/<yyyymm>.mbox using a 'install' statement in debian/rules. I've done this because this builds some archive like structure beneath /usr/share/doc/mailinglists to work with instead of having one directory per month and list :-) Apart form this file, it installs some copyright notice as the package did where I looked at and like it is described in the policy manual that every package needs to have one and it's changelog. So, what copyright to use for a mailinglist archive? And is there any other comment about the way I'm doing these package(s)? Any comment is greatly welcome :-) Cheers, Jan PS: I could put my test project on some webserver if someone would like to look at it..
