As I have been only superficially been following this, I am

does when talking to the user ("Half-Configured") for consistency.
Also, made the spelling of internal states consistent:
"Half-Configured",
not: Half Configured, half configured, or half-configured.

Hi,
Debian packages should not install files under /var/www. This
is not one of the /var directories in the File Hierarchy Standard and
is under the control of the local administrator. Packages should not
assume that it is the
that the #! line), it follows that how the file
is invoked should not change the behaviour of the build system.
The clarifying language above was proposed by Ben Finney, and
has been seconded by Manoj Srivastava.

So. We have a criteria that would allow for anyone needing to
set up a periodic cron job, and at least two packages that pr
space, and a later proposal coming forth with
actual details of the usage, when multi-arch is further along.
So, unless there are objections, I would like to see the wording
changes go in now, with clarifications added as and when multi-atch
solidifies.
