I'd appreciate it as this would mean the > README file gets reviewed as well. :) Right. I moved the content of this template to a very basic README.Debian file (attached). I also attach to this mail the revised versions of debian/control and templates file, including Justin's corrections as well as yours.
Please note that, in order to keep the current installation safe, SysCP does not reconfigure the mail or FTP servers. They should be configured to use the MySQL database provided by SysCP. SysCP also requires cron jobs. These are not installed automatically because they cause web server reloads, which you probably want to keep controlled. Some example configurations may be found in /usr/share/doc/syscp/examples.
Template: syscp/reconfigure-webserver
Type: multiselect
Choices: apache2, lighttpd
_Description: Web server to reconfigure automatically:
Please choose the web server that should be automatically configured
to run SysCP.
Template: syscp/admin-username
Type: string
Default: admin
_Description: Username for the first admin user:
You need to set up an admin user to be able to log in to SysCP after
installation.
.
If you leave this field empty, the default username ("admin") will be used.
Template: syscp/admin-password
Type: password
Default:
_Description: Password for the first admin user:
Please choose a password for the new admin user.
.
If you leave this field empty, the password will be randomly generated.
.
The user name and password will be stored in /etc/syscp/debian.php.
Template: syscp/customer-dir
Type: string
Default: /var/lib/syscp/customers
_Description: Directory for customer data:
SysCP will be configured to save customer data in one location.
Subdirectories will be created for web services ("webs"), mail
accounts ("mail"), temporary files ("tmp"), and log files ("logs").
.
If you leave this empty, the default "/var/lib/syscp/customers"
directory will be used. However, upstream developers use
"/var/customers", so if you already have customer data somewhere, such
as data originating from a former installation, or if you want an
entirely different directory to hold the customers' data, you can enter
the directory path here.

Description: system control panel for LAMP servers
SysCP is an easy-to-use system control panel for ISP web and mail servers. It
provides an administration interface to set up customers, assign domains to
them and configure those to have web space and mail accounts regulated by
quotas. With SysCP, ISP customers can log in and manage their mail
accounts, subdomains and other services on their own.
.
SysCP supports Apache 2, lighttpd, ProFTPd, Postfix, Courier, Dovecot, MySQL
and other common daemons an Internet service provider would need.
