Hi,

one can span fields like Uploaders on multiple lines, using several
spaces to align everything, which is what evolution-mapi people did:
| Uploaders: Heikki Henriksen <heik...@gmail.com>,
|            Lawrence Walton <lawre...@the-penguin.otak.com>,
|            Loic Minier <l...@dooz.org>,
|            Oystein Gisnas <oyst...@gisnas.net>,
|            Josselin Mouette <j...@debian.org>,
|            Jelmer Vernooij <jel...@debian.org>,
|            Yves-Alexis Perez <cor...@debian.org>,
|            David Weinehall <t...@debian.org>

But it looks like apt-cache showsrc almost display them as-is, that is
just stripping newlines:
| Uploaders: Heikki Henriksen <heik...@gmail.com>,           Lawrence Walton 
<lawre...@the-penguin.otak.com>,           Loic Minier <l...@dooz.org>,         
  Oystein Gisnas <oyst...@gisnas.net>,           Josselin Mouette 
<j...@debian.org>,           Jelmer Vernooij <jel...@debian.org>,           
Yves-Alexis Perez <cor...@debian.org>,           David Weinehall 
<t...@debian.org>

Mraw,
KiBi.
