* Why are you mangling a prior changelog entry when the changes to
debian/rules did not happen back then?
* Will something break with compat level 8? If not, why not switch to
it directly and while you're at it document it in the changelog.
* debian/copyright is a bit delicate.
You list Lance O'Connor while all the file headers list
MonkeyMental.com. I guess Lance O'Connor is the person behind the domain
but IMO debian/copyright doesn't reflect the actual copyright holder
given in the code. Seems wrong to me, I'd mention both. But I'm not sure
how to correctly reflect this in this fancy new file format for
debian/copyright which I don't use.
Regarding this new file format I believe most people reference a revision
in a subversion repository instead of the wiki page.
A minor point is that you reference /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL
which is not necessarily GPL2+ but still not totaly wrong if you make use
of the '+'. Opinion may vary on that one.
* Regarding the examples you install, I'd recommend to use dh_installexamples
so they end up in the correct location.
