Yeah, I was not sure whether or not it made sense to do that. On the
one hand, if I had not done that, we would have a tag pointing to a
Debian release (debian/0.9.8-1) and then we would have commits after
this tag. On the other hand, we would have a second Debian release
without having released the first.
I think the solution would be to retag the latest commit as
debian/0.9.8-1, maybe?

This is because upstream is still not releasing versioned source
tarballs. I've made a request to the author, and he told me he is going
to start doing that in the next releases.

These are all spelling errors. I can obviously patch the package
locally and send a patch upstream, but I don't think it's worth delaying
the release because of this (IMHO).

I can fix this.

The package has really no documentation (unfortunately). The three
files that are listed in debian/docs are very simple (rudimentary, I'd
say) texts; that's why I did not register a doc-base. If you think it
is worth, I can silence this info.

I'm not upstream, I'm just becoming more involved with it. I will send
patches fixing the spelling errors, and I'll patch the package locally
as well.
