Dear Gian Piero,

from a technical point of view, it would be easy to integrate these documents
(note that the debconf specification is already in).  But I think that the
request should go from the sub-policy maintainers to the policy maintainers,
not the reverse direction.

If you think there are benefits to maintain all documents in the same package
(preferrably in DocBook XML), please discuss it with the Emacsen, Java and
Python policy maintainers first.  If they propose to transfer their documents
in the policy package, I am confident that their request will be received very
positively.

Have a nice day,
