It was the first step for me. I took a while till I realized that the main 
development of the package was in the tags branch and not in trunk.

But I must admit I have to figure out what to do next. 

One of my current work is to move away from cdbs to dh aka debhelper7. Again, 
because I am more used to work with debhelper than with cdbs.

Other priorities will be #749833 and the packaging of scilab v6.

Yes I will move the package to the debian-science git repo as soon as 
possible.

I understand that you're worried. When I decided to take ovr scilab I was a 
little bit naive about the complexity of the package. But since I currently 
have no job, I can spend more time on packaging. But I can't predict when this 
will change again.
