Thanks for your good research :-)
I just updated developer-reference follwing your private communication.
As you pointed out to me, the debian-policy odiscussion below is quite
interesting.
http://lists.debian.org/debian-policy/2005/10/msg00042.html
Jean-Marc did good research to find a package that matches the
recommendation which:
- has both spaces
- doesn't spell it home page
- has the : following homepage
- doesn't surround the address with <>
- doesn't use the "Author" pseudo-field that was also proposed in Dec.
2002 but not kept in developers-reference.
This is wml package. :-)
