Up front: I'm not entirely sure whats in the template as its some time since i've used it.... (yay for teams). I've wondered why the result of lintian wasn't automatically included in the template, in a non-user-serviceable kind of way already. It would allow sponsors to look at the rfs and say 'thats not clean, they say it is, probably better places to spend my time'. Thats not to say doco shouldn't be updated to make it obvious lintian needs running before upload... thanks, kk -- Karl Goetz, (Kamping_Kaiser / VK5FOSS) Debian contributor / gNewSense Maintainer http://www.kgoetz.id.au No, I won't join your social networking group
