package building info for newbies?

[Joey Hess <joey@kite.ml.org>]

I occasionally need to direct dpkg newbies to some basic information about
how to build and install debian packages. The policy and programmer's
manuals are a little too hefty. Is there a shorter explination somwhere I
can direct them to?
