Use «package metadata» instead of «control information»
Using «control information» when talking about control files and control
formats, and similar gets confusing fast. Switch to package metadata, as
some of the files in the deb(5) archive control member are not usually
in deb822(5) format. - 1221. By Guillem Jover <email address hidden>

Clarify terminology for Debian control files
Their current descriptive names are very close and easily confused if
one is not paying close attention. Use new terminology that try to
make them less ambiguous and intuitive.The new and unified terms are:
* debian/control: «Debian source package template control file»
* .dsc: «Debian source package control file»
* DEBIAN/control: «Debian binary package control file»
* .changes: «Debian upload changes control file»For contents we use these new terms:
First stanza in debian/control: «source package stanza»
Next stanzas in debian/control: «binary package stanza» - 1215. By Max-Julian Pogner <email address hidden>
