I disagree. 90% of the time, if something needs explanation, then the explanation belongs as comments in the code. Well, I’m just paraphrasing the GCS. If you would like to propose amendments to the GCS, please use bug-standa...@gnu.org. (Though I would instead recommend keeping up the good packaging work. ;-)) Thanks, Ludo’.
