description writing guide

[Colin Walters <walters@debian.org>]

Hello,

I think the package descriptions are a very important product of this
project.  They're going to be one of the first things people see when
they use Debian, and their quality directly reflects on the quality of
Debian.  I've been putting in some random efforts here and there to
comment on new package descriptions, but I finally sat down and
committed my thoughts on description writing in a semi-coherent form:

Please have a look at this if you're creating a new package now, and
fixing packages you currently maintain would be great too :)

Comments appreciated, of course.
