   Hi Jelmer,   
      
   I'm using lintian-brush nearly before any upload of my packages.   
   Recently I realised that it messes up Publication and Registry entries a   
   lot to make them either unusable (JSON sytnax becomes broken) or is   
   loosing a lot of information.  I would be happy if we could switch back   
   to some more conservative handling of these fields or rather do not   
   touch these.   
      
   I could assemble some specific examples if this might be helpful, thought   
      
   Thank you for lintian-brush anyway   
      Andreas.
