Actually, my lack of knowledge in Vala *will* be a problem sooner or
later. Hence, if you know Vala, I would be happy and co-maintain this
package with you.
What about working in the collab-maint git repo (if you have an Alioth
account, just ask to be part of the group)?

Great, "my" packages are now building ;)

We have some minor differences in our packages:
* Why build-dep on apt-utils?
* I have switched to 3.0 (quilt) package format
* Why not use machine readable copyright file?
etc.

I'll push my changes in the next hour or so, you can also check my
packages.

Cheers,
Julien
