I admit I didn't pay much attention to formality, aiming at
functionality as soon as possible, but I guess the changes needed to
conform to debian policy are not that many. Currently lintian outputs
these warnings

W: creepy source: maintainer-script-lacks-debhelper-token debian/postinst
W: creepy source: out-of-date-standards-version 3.8.4 (current is 3.9.1)
W: creepy: debian-changelog-line-too-long line 1
W: creepy: wrong-bug-number-in-closes l94:#nnnn
W: creepy: binary-without-manpage usr/bin/creepymap

and also there is the matter of how python applications should be
packaged in debian ( currently I use python-support )

I'd be more than happy to help in any way
