Sure thing.  I was not arguing otherwise.  If this package can be
overseen by the Lua team for all the benefits you list, the better!

I'm sorry but I don't understand.  This is my very first Debian
package, so everything related to package development in Debian still
escapes my mind...

I don't have any problems with using svn, but what for?  To store the
source package?  I'd have thought all packages were stored in the same
place/system... so I'm a little bit surprised by this.  I may not be
understanding this correctly though.

Lastly, are any of you actually offering to review this package? :-)

Thanks!
