Hi Enrico,
I don't think anyone disagrees although there's not been discussion in either direction.. I note that this is present in the web version: http://www.us.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/ch-best-pkging-practices.en.html#s-bpp-dbg which annotates that it is 3.3.9 although that isn't actually present in the archive afaict.
