Oke, feel free to move the repo any time. I'm neither DD nor DM, so you
would have to give me permissions to push to the repo if its in the
debian namespace.

I'm happy about reviews! I have already some experience with packaging
and have more or less regular sponsors for some of my packages, but its
nice to have packages reviewed by new people, because different people
have different approaches to packaging ;)

Oke, I'll do that. I'm using the 'bare debian' git packaging approach,
which is not very common, but I'm happy to switch to something else (I
read the PkgMate/GitPackaging page, but it still lists alioth, so I'm
not sure how authoritative it is...).
I'll can then ping you when I think the package is ready for review.
cheers,
Birger
