... and create a new directory in the ftp tree, named something like
debian ? Then all the debian development packages (dchanges, debhelper,
debian-cd, debian-policy, debianutils, debmake, debsums, dh-make,
dpkg-repack, dupload just to name a few) could be moved... Easy to
find and download for a prospective developer.
