I have a PPA package for Ubuntu here:

   https://launchpad.net/~campos-dev/+archive/campos

I guess a few things (like the fact that this should be for Debian and not 
for Ubuntu) have to be changed, but otherwise things should be in place 
with the possible exception of some policy issues.

With regards to maintenance, I'm not entirely clear on how we were going 
to do things in the first place.  Yann?

Ask
