I'd like to second that request, I mean to go through this thread again when I have some free moments, but a FAQ would help a lot to assimilate all this information. (I'm in a similar boat to Holger with my experience to gbp, I tried going through the documentation on the wiki a few times and just got frustrated. I just use packaging and Vcs-fields and tags and nothing fancier than that, which works for the few dozen packages I have and I think the workflow is trivial enough so that downstream consumers wouldn't have any problem whatsoever figuring out how to make use of it, but I suppose as that list grows it will become important to have worflows that scale up a bit more.) > thanks.
