  well, _more_ documentation would be helpfull too.
  we cannot say cdbs doc is very verbose ...

  for example, I've tryed hard (even with grepping /usr/share/cdbs) to
find how cdbs handled lintian overrides, /usr/share/doc symlink for
multi binary packages ...  And I've gave up to use a cdbs mechanism and
I've used some dh_* scripts (and even cp's grrr) for those parts ...

  There is no FAQ, even no real cdbs page ([1] is really not a good
page, even with the fancy png)

  And don't misundersand me, cdbs is really _great_ but its
documentation well, it cannot suck, it even doesn't really exists IMHO
