It's really too old to be very useful. I don't think we have been following a very strict policy, but the Debian GNOME group uses a set of tools and relatively homogen packaging habits across the pkg-gnome packages. We're happy to help in specific issues you face, or to start from other packages as templates for yours; we hang on #gnome-debian on GIMPNet, but you can also ask your questions on [EMAIL PROTECTED] If anyone is interested in maintaining a GNOME subpolicy document, I guess he could try collecting information with us. -- Loïc Minier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
