I've committed the change now.

Cool, I've committed these changes, too.

Do you still plan to upload libnet-amazon-s3-perl or do you think it's generally useless?

That's all, really... :-) Well, also, I think I > entered a package I needed at work. Sure, that's fine for me (as long as the packages in the repository are there for being maintained by us and are prepared to be uploaded to the Debian archive eventually); I was just wondering about packages that are 1) (by debian/control) not maintained by the group and 2) not uploaded to the archive (yet). What about these two: | libidna-punycode-perl | Maintainer: Kjetil Kjernsmo (Work key) <kjetilk@opera.com> | (not in the archive) | | libwordnet-querydata-perl | Maintainer: Kjetil Kjernsmo (Work key) <kjetilk@opera.com> | (not in the archive) Are they ready for upload? Do they need more work? Something else?

Well, at the moment it's less about policy and more about dealing with my confusion :-) Thanks to all of you! gregor -- .''`. http://info.comodo.priv.at/ | gpg key ID: 0x00F3CFE4 : :' : debian: the universal operating system - http://www.debian.org/ `. `' member of https://www.vibe.at/ | how to reply: http://got.to/quote/ `- NP: Supertramp: Rudy
