I've used sa slightly different wording:
* The source code for all packages; this has been saved in the sources/
subdirectory (except for the non-redistributable packages, which have not
been saved). Patches that were applied are also saved, along with a file
named 'series' that lists the patches in the order they were applied.

Do they still stand with the above wording?
Thanks! :-)
