In an old message Geert Stappers made the following remark
(in Dutch so I'll translate)
"An ITP relates to packaging a git repo for Debian"
Do I interpret that out of context or does this mean
that nowadays neither a CVS repository nor a
source tarbal are acceptable starting points for a Debian package?
