I’m just now (OK I’m slow) marveling at how similar BagIt turned out to be to the Debian Package Format. Given some of the folks involved, this synchronicity isn’t too surprising.
Both .deb and BagIt use a directory ‘data’ for bundling the files in the package (well .deb has it as a compressed file data.tar.gz). [...]
What I'm Doing...
