Dear Maintainer,

it is about this part of your website.

https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control

It lacks the information that all on that site described commands need to have
a "Control: " string in front of them. Otherwise they are useless. For new
users it seems impossible to know. My maintainers did told me how to do it. And
I still can not find that very important key information on your website.

Depending on my experience with the Debian community the info must be somewhere
there. But I couldn't find it.

Even the that linked sub-pages didn't mention the "Control: " string.

https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-request
https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-refcard

I assume improving this would draw less new contributors away.

Kind
Christian
