Fine.  I think we should point other readers to the subject of this thread:

   http://cvs.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/cdd/common/cdd/?cvsroot=cdd

(More or less the files which were uploaded by author kalfa.)

BTW, I added you to the Uploaders field of the debian/control file.

I'd suggest to change lines containing

      CONFBASE=./etc/cdd

to

      CONFBASE=${CONFROOT}/etc/cdd

and call the scripts with

      CONFROOT="." cdd-user [options]

for testing purposes.  This way we would not need patching for the Debian
package release.

IMHO the perfect place to handle such kind of TODO-List is

   http://cvs.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/cdd/doc/common/en/07_todo.sgml?cvsroot=cdd

Well, I do not know either of them so I can't comment on it.

Kind regards
