Hi Rafael and Cyril I also would like to help and adopt blender.Since a few months, I've updated blender svn on almost a daily basis to keep track of Blender Python API changes for my scripts and to contribute with patches. Lately I've started to think about building debian package to understand how it's done then I found this bug report.
I've already cloned the git repository located at <http://git.debian.org/?p=collab-maint/blender.git;a=summary> and I'm actually playing with it :).

I want to adopt this package. Should I work with the package in experimental or is there a public repository that would be a better source? I think the first step is getting the new blender 2.50 alpha 1 to work. Do you recommend doing something before first?
According to recent annoucements, blender 2.5 alpha 2 has a bugfixed about texture images not saved in .blend files.
