Hi Manoj,
Could you confirm that the Arch repository is the correct location?
The last chnagelog is from:
2006-10-02 Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>
According to checkout:
baz register-archive http://arch.debian.org/arch/dbnpolicy/lenny/
baz get debian-policy@lists.debian.org--lenny/debian-policy--devel--3.7
Is this correct?
A wishlist: Could git be considered instead of baz, because git's
development seems to advance fast and it would be more easy to use (just
one "clone" command to get archive).
