If we can’t do this reproducibly and verifiably, then I don’t think we should do tag2upload at all. But my guess is it can be done. I know that one of the goals of those proposing the GR is to not have a fat client on the DD machine to generate the .dsc and .changes. But I think the security of the tag2upload proposal would be improved if they dropped that as one of their goals. To me that is the Gripping Hand (meaning, the most important factor that trumps all the other factors). -- Soren Stoutner so...@debian.org
