There's going to be some conflict on this patch as we should also rename XS-Vcs-* to Vcs-* in the whole document. Otherwise I agree that we should recommend the usage of Homepage. And apart from the remark above, your patch looks mostly ok. BTW, I created http://wiki.debian.org/DeveloperNews with the intent to collect small updates like this one and send them by batch to d-d-a. Andreas ? Can I commit this update ? (BTW, you haven't responded to http://lists.debian.org/debian-ctte/2007/09/msg00037.html) Cheers, -- Raphaël Hertzog Premier livre français sur Debian GNU/Linux : http://www.ouaza.com/livre/admin-debian/
