 As for descriptions of each of those, you could use:

   http://packages.debian.org/unstable/

 But there are 2 additional entries in the second list:

   base
   debian-installer

 I think these should be included and there should be link to 
   http://packages.debian.org/unstable/

I've added a mention of the special debian-installer section and a link to
that web page for the next version of Policy.  Thanks!

 No. base is dead, there is no base.

I now remember you there were announcement ... 

Should I file another bug report for http://packages.debian.org/unstable/?

Funny thing is that it points only to:

vmelilo (1.5.4) [debports]
Linux kernel boot loader for m68k VME processor boards. 

This is strange.

 The officially supported list of sections from dak is:

... snip. 

Thans for the details.

No, just the ports archive having an outdated and nowadays broken
config.
