Hi there... What about people who are not debian developers but who want to make local debian packages? (forexample: admin folx who want to document/package THEIR policy w/o being tied to debian policy: we all KNOW that these will/do exist)
(Note in general: I think some debian practices go against the grain of allowing admins to do their jobs freely. However, I also think that debian is making progress in this area. I will add support for this statement in future emails, but for now, it is simply my own vague opinion :) My contention (unofficial of course) is that these folks will not want to read a "legal" document; they want a howto-get-it-done-NOW-or-YESTERDAY :) Manoj: OfCourse, if your proposal doesn't affect the content of the doc, then all might be well. If the packaging manual carries policy weight, then is it too heavy for such a situation? -Jim
