As the author of one of those documents, (Will Lowe is the other but I
don't know if he is still working on it.) I agree completely. I no longer
use debstd in my own packages and don't recommend it to others.

Hi,
I am working on packaging wxftp. From the source, I want to create
wxftp-gtk, wxftp-doc (and later wxftp-dmotif and wxftp-smotif).
I started with gtk and doc to check out how to do this.
The controlfile looks like this:
Source: wxftp
Section: non-free/net
Priority: optional
Maintainer: Mar
