BTW I find no reference in policy about the NEWS.Debian file. It would
nice to require to document (at last for one stable release) all (also
user visibe API/ABI) incompatibilities in such files.
It is a goos practice, yes. Seems to me that that indicates it
belongs to the developers reference?
It is also an API (dpkg-listchanges uses it) and IIRC in last year (or maybe
two year ago) the format was standardized (i.e. the same format as
debian/changelog).
Anyway I would propose the inclusion of NEWS.Debian on policy only
after policy will reference it.
