Dear Sébastien!

I have now updated the alioth repo to reflect my upstream release 0.3.1.

I pulled the new upstream version into the alioth repo and added a new 
changelog entry.

Debian standards is updated to 4.11

I also modified the lists of files to be installed, to reflect one added 
header, one header name change and a few new examples.

The package has finally emerged from the NEW queue, so I did these 
changes now that everything seems to have settled nicely. I hope I did 
everything right - on my system, I managed to successfully build the 
package with gbp buildpackage, so I hope all is well.

So now I'd like to ask you to have a look, to make sure all is well, and 
upload the package if you are content with my modifications - or let me 
know if there are things I have missed.
