Bug#453313: developers-reference: Please add a set of best practices for sponsoring packages

[Ramakrishnan Muthukrishnan <rkrishnan.debian@gmail.com>]

Package: developers-reference
Version: 3.3.8
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Recently I made a mistake of hastily sponsoring a package which 
contained an i386 binary but was set for all architectures. It 
will be nice if a set of guidelines or checklists on sponsored 
packages are listed under section 7.5.2. Some of the guidelines 
are listed under this thread. 

 http://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2007/11/msg00183.html

Also see bug #452804.

Thanks
Ramakrishnan
