At this point I would suggest keeping on doing it. Given the effort you
already put into it you better push this through to the end.

I would suggest changing this to:

   1. Enable a novice maintainer to build his first debian package
      with the least effort possible and allow a gradual development
      of new maintainers about debian packaging procedures.

Debian is a volunteer project and we are heavily depending on energizing
new people to contribute to the project.
