Thanks for the poke. I hope someone else can get to it before I can
but just to point out - Debian is currently in freeze for the release
of squeeze so no new versions of any software will be accepted in
regular uploads. We can still upload it to experimental so that it is
available for anyone that wants it.
And we can make uploads to the Ubuntu ppa so that they can go through
that process to try to get into the next version of Ubuntu.

Though, if there were any serious bugs fixed in 3.1.4 then we should
backport the fixes into the Debian version of 3.1.3

Does anyone know if it is possible to make the debs built for Debian
to be made available in the Ubuntu ppa?

Thanks,
Daniel
