Got it from there. Here are my comments:

- If you add yourself to Uploaders, you don't need an NMU version
number.

- I'd appreciate if you drop cdbs over debhelper (or do you prefer
cdbs?).

- When changing to a debhelper rules file, I recommend to add
autotools-dev (>> 20100122.1~) and call its addon (hardening should be
automatically enabled with dh 9). Even if you stay with cdbs update the
config.* files.

- About the VCS. For some reason, the alioth SCM browser is broken for
debian-xml-sgml (still points to CVS). However, the Vcs-Svn is
svn://anonscm.debian.org/debian-xml-sgml/packages/docbook2x/trunk/ now.
However, you are free to change to git if you want to adopt the package
(open bug http://bugs.debian.org/660682). In this case you should close
the RFA bug too.

- There are some more bug reports which you might to target, e.g.
#516165, #597454, #631078 ...

Regards, Daniel
