I cannot sponsor I am afraid, but I have a few comments.
* "Upgrade to debhelper v5, adjust the build-dependancy accordingly and
bump debian/compat.", but debian/compat = 4.
* The description is a bit lacking in my opinion.
* Please switch to ${binary:Version} in debian/control.
* Is the rsskit.framework package needed? Is this a GNUStep
convention? If I want the -dev package I depend on it, which in
turn, depends on the lib. If I just need the lib, I depend on that.
* Include the license header of the LGPL in debian/copyright.
* The README.Debian should be README.Debian-source.
* You can lose the configure target from debian/rules.
