Hi David!

Please, file an  ITP for this package. This will be  useful to track any
progress, especially if someone has handled the upload or not.

Moreover,  the .dsc  file is  not  signed. The  directory also  contains
multiple  dsc  files   that  appear  to  be  extracted   from  the  same
source. There should be one dsc file generating multiple deb files for a
given source repository.

I  see  that  there  debian/  directory  was  contributed  by  a  Debian
Developer. Why not ask him to upload the package?

At first glance, here are the problems with the current package:
 - debian/changelog has an incorrect distribution
 - Vcs-* fields is for Debian packaging, not upstream VCS repository
 - some of the files are licensed under MIT/X11, some are GPLv2 only
 - examples should be packaged with dh_examples and should not be just a
   tar.gz files. If  someone installs this package, he  is aware that he
   will need some disk space for it.
 - debian/watch is useless for a SVN snapshot
 - CFLAGS and  INSTALL_PROGRAM settings  is now  done  automatically by
   dpkg-buildpackage. You can remove them from debian/rules
