Thanks to Didier Raboud for pointing out the problem. * Improve release process documentation in README.md. * Policy changes process: - Deprecate usage of the 'issue' usertag It is usually very clear whether an issue is a policy matter, so bugs can be simply closed, or moved to the 'discussion' phase. In the rare case that it's not clear whether the bug is a policy matter, it can remain unclassified, or be tagged 'moreinfo' (see below). - Add policy-specific usage for the 'moreinfo' tag. * tools/policy-bug-report: - Enhance to fetch bugs that have a given usertag or combination of usertags - Improve the lists of bugs generated, for posting to Planet Debian. * Add convention to upgrading checklist for indicating that a policy requirement is covered by Lintian.
