Frank is in contact with upstream and I would also like to leave it to him to 
decide for the Etch-worthiness. I personally think that it would be nice for 
Etch to have but that I'd prefer to go via Upstream for the next stable 
releases. However, I may be thinking very differently next year :-)

What is fairly amazing: I had totally forgottet about the "export-boinc" 
script when I submitted yesterday's script. And that albeit me having already 
contributed to it :-) The idea to use the version specfication in 
debian/changelog though is something I should possibly just merge in, also 
the concept of having fixed paths for subversion.

Many greetings

Steffen
