Notes:
I am the Debian Maintainer of budgie-desktop & budgie-extras (plus
several other packages).  This package Is currently in Testing.

I have spot checked the diff between the previous version 1.0.2 and
this to to ensure they contain no changes to the copyright header.

I have sbuild this package against unstable and all information &
warning lintian issues have been resolved.  The build has been tested
and confirmed working as per the upstream release note - a simplified
version of which is described below.

In addition to sponsoring this package update - if appropriate I would like
to continue maintainership of this package
(assuming that it is acceptable to Debian) in a similar manner as my
current maintainership packages (dak fossfreedom@ubuntu.com)
