If the 0.7.x series is going to be the development version for a
while, maybe something à-la-Gimp like calling the package drbd0.7 (and
having the date in the Debian version) would be appropriate.
Otherwise, if the upstream development is pretty fast-moving, you
could possibly use "drbd-cvs" as the package name (and still have the
date in the Debian version). That way the ftpmasters wouldn't have to
keep making changes to the override file.
