Ok, i read through the nlog of joey and i would say that the braced
format is really nice, the coolest thing is that dch from
testing/unstable supports this format (i did not know that, because i
am still developing packages on sarge, but i just installed devscripts
from backports.org ;-) ).

If we want to use this format in the future, everyone who "releases" a
package must be listed as Uploader in debian/control, because
otherwise lintian will complain about NMU's with wrong version nummer.
I do not know if it is necessary to add every developer to
debian/copyright to, i guess it is not. ;-)

So i would vote for using the braced format in the future, any
objections?


Regards,
Thomas
