While pulling compiz regularly from upstream
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~compiz-team/compiz/0.9.12/ , I still have a
few lines of local patches concerning the default configuration and
build dependencies for Debian, plus a bugfix for mouse cursor visibility
which hasn't made it into the official repository yet, so I'll likely
continue to build my own packages for Knoppix, but I'm very happy to
know that compiz makes it back into the Debian mainline. :-)

Thanks, I'm glad I'm in automatically. :-)

At which level is this kept in sync with the launchpad repository?

Svn is OK for me.
