I know of only two uses of XS-X fields: - XS-Python-Version (or something like that), mandated by the new python policy - XS-X-Vcs-Svn, discussed on debian-devel some weeks ago There is no standardization for headers related to the vcs used by a package, but there is currently no drift either. The only packages I found with such info are Dato's and I inherited from it. My hope is to standardize it by mere use. To this end I also contacted Raphael Hertzog to see if I can use this information as part of the static information in the PTS.
