So, I have almost completed the drafts of

1. General Information page -
https://wiki.debian.org/BalasankarC/DebianRuby
2. Packaging Conventions -
https://wiki.debian.org/BalasankarC/DebianRuby/Packaging/Conventions
3. Basic packaging steps -
https://wiki.debian.org/BalasankarC/DebianRuby/Packaging

All these are heavily inspired (which literally means copied and
modified based on my knowledge) from their existing versions.

The packaging steps currently include steps to create a new package
and uploading it to alioth and sending RFS. I will add about
contributing to/co-maintaining/fixing/updating existing packages when
I have my doubts[1] about the helper scripts cleared.

#TODO
0. Write on generating documentation using rdoc, with examples.
1. Write about the common test failures (like usage of Bundler, locale
issues etc)
2. Expand on small things to notice while building packages - like
gemspec containing 'git' statements causing gemspec not creating etc
(probably many others)
3. Write about testing of new version of interpreter during a
transition - it is a little bit advanced and would need help from
someone experienced.
4. Write about dealing with the master package repository and updating
it - again, advanced and need help.

I intend to split the packaging steps to different pages, as single
page style seems to cause too much clutter.

Suggestions/criticisms/factual corrections are welcome.
