Bug#906286: repository-format sub-policy

[Julian Andres Klode <jak@debian.org>]

Package: debian-policy
Severity: wishlist

(more of a discussion for now)

6 years ago we started working on documenting the repository format
in the wiki[1] with the goal of making it a sub policy. I have not
done any work on converting it.

Should we move forward now with turning it into a policy? If so,
what are the next steps to do?
