[Automake-NG] [PATCH 0/7] More patches on distribution tarballs support

[Stefano Lattarini]

I'm not pushing this right away, because the patch 6 contains a profound
API change in how the desired formats for the distribution tarballs can
be specified or overridden.  I think the new API is substantially better,
and since the transition from the old one to the new one is very
mechanical, I'm ready to apply it right away; but comments and reviews
are welcome anyway for such a meaty patch, so I'll refrain a day or two
from pushing.

Regards,
  Stefano
