Subject: debian-policy could include emacs policy

5.8 Emacs lisp programs
Please refer to the `Debian Emacs Policy' (documented in
debian-emacs-policy.gz of the emacsen-common package) for details of
how to package emacs lisp programs.
Would there be any objection to including the content of
debian-emacs-policy.gz into the policy itself, instead of this reference?
Thanks.

This note is being sent as part of a project to clean out old (> 1yr)
debian-policy proposals. If you disagree with action below please
respond to bug#@bugs.debian.org, not to me, so that the discussion may
be carried out publically in debian-policy. Feel free to re-open the
bug while it's being discussed -- I'm not trying to force any
particular disposition, just taking my best shot at resolving dead
issues.
Bug#30036: Including subpolicies (emacs, menu etc) in policy
Summary: Proposed incorporating subpolicies into policy
document. Nobody seemed to like this much; a counter-proposal of
including the subpolicy docs in the debian-policy .deb gained more
support. Lots of concern about mixing of technical details (e.g. how
to write a menu-method) with policy (e.g. what is the menu heirarchy).
Discussion: This seems to have come to consensus and agreement, as the
policy .deb currently contains mime-policy, menu-policy, and
perl-policy. No emacs-policy, but I'd guess that audience is small
enough there's no problem there. Presumably subpolicy writers will
submit their doc when it seems appropriate.
Action: close.
