new maintainer was (Re: building my own .debs)

[lloyder@canada.com]

Hello Michael,

I am new to Debian, but my understanding of the role
of maintainer is that you do not necessarily need to 
be able to patch the product the package you are 
maintaining contains, but know the package, and 
how it fits in to Debian.  The more you know about the
product, the program's status and issues, and the 
better off your relationship is with the developers of 
that product, the better off the package is likely to 
be.

Best regards,
Lloyd
