Dear all, now that the implementation changed (http://lists.debian.org/87vcf6lbw4....@deep-thought.43-1.org), I propose the following patch to obsolete the DM-Upload-Allowed field. This patch creates a new subsection for obsoleted fields. Alternatively we can concentrate the information where it is, in 5.6.25. Deleting it would cause some other sub-subsections to be renumbered, so I think that it is better to avoid. Have a nice week-end, -- Charles Plessy Tsurumi, Kanagawa, Japan
