 Args.  About those I prepared a mail offline but sent it to a wrong
address.  :-/

 So I'm going to resend it in here:

 I shot a little too fast there... I have two concerns regarding that
file:

 a.) NEWS.Debian should live inside the debian/ subdirectory. This was
the first thing I wanted to change, but then:

 b.) The contents of the file doesn't seem Debian specific. So I rather
think it should be renamed to NEWS and put there as "upstream"
changelog? I am not sure thought that apt-listchanges does pick that up.
That has to be checked, I hope though that apt-listchanges does this,
because it also displayes changelog.gz for native packages, so it should
be able to display NEWS.gz too. If it doesn't I would regard this as a
bug in apt-listchanges and report it. Can someone test that, please?

 So long,
Alfie
