Hello Thomas,

Yes, I mean "arch independent" due to the fact that it is written in bash, an interpreted language.

What I am pointing out is that anyone who downloads the "binary" deb package has all the "source" that I do.  But, again, I understand the rules for a separate source package, and I'll comply with that.

I think you urgently need to read the Debian developper manual and New maintainer guide, the come back here when you believe that your package matches the policy, and what is written in these documents. Nobody will/can sponsor a binary package (yes, a .deb is said to be a binary even if it is arch indep.).
