Notes:
I am the debian maintainer - this request is due to the new/changed
binaries which is not part of my upload rights.

lintian -i -I run on the built source and is lintian free

check-all-the-things has been run on the source and corrections made
to the source

sbuild run to ensure builds correctly for both unstable and experimental

debian/copyright revised to accommodate the new source files
introduced in this release.

This request is for upload to experimental - this is the first beta
release for budgie-extras and I consider this needs additional testing
due to the extent of changes before upload to the main unstable
archive (it would be eventually v1.0.0)

This upload introduces new built binaries to be authorised by
archive-admins via the NEW queue.

Changes since the last upload:

   * New release
     git tag v0.90.0 beta release 1
   * New applets

   * budgie-visualspace-applet previous python based applet converted
     to vala

   * Bug-fixes

     Support vertical panels for weather applet
     Rework dropby applet to prevent panel freezing issues
   * Translation updates
   * Packaging Changes
     debian/copyright refresh to include year updates and new source files
