The debian-installer files are organised this way in the SVN
repository:

ubulle@mykerinos:~/src/debian/debian-installer/packages> ls -lR|more
.:
total 136
drwxrwxr-x    4 bubulle  bubulle      4096 2004-03-30 22:35 anna
drwxrwxr-x   12 bubulle  bubulle      4096 2004-03-30 22:32 arch
drwxrwxr-x    5 bubulle  bubulle      4096 2004-03-30 22:35 autopartkit
.../...
./anna:
total 40
-rw-rw-r--    1 bubulle  bubulle     12213 2004-03-30 22:35 anna.c
-rw-rw-r--    1 bubulle  bubulle      1693 2004-03-30 22:35 anna.h
drwxrwxr-x    4 bubulle  bubulle      4096 2004-03-30 22:35 debian
.../...
./anna/debian/po:
total 300
-rw-rw-r--    1 bubulle  bubulle      4866 2004-03-30 22:35 ar.po
-rw-rw-r--    1 bubulle  bubulle      5607 2004-03-30 22:35 bg.po
.../...

This means that the best layout for big commits is

anna/
anna/debian/
anna/debian/po/
anna/debian/po/gl.po
autopartkit/
autopartkit/debian/
autopartkit/debian/po/
autopartkit/debian/po/gl.po
.../...

Thus, makgin a "tar xf" on a tar file you send is easier for the
commiter. The files will immediately fall daown in the correct
directory.

Anyway, send the files, don't worry about the layout if that's a
problem for you or if the above is badly explained. Just put all the
stuff in a tar file and I'll manage...:-)

As you seem to have several files, don't send it to the list as this
will add too much traffic without real interest for everybody. I'm
available today, so send them privately to me.

I'll check and commit then. In the meantime, you should apply for an
account on alioth.debian.org. This will allow you to commit yourself
in the future.

Feel free to ask here or on #debian-boot at irc.debian.org if you have
more questions.
