I don't have any uploads anywhere, as I was just trying to do a build from the 
git repos of each repository.  I did read a bit over the steps to make things 
ready for backports, but I didn't try any of that yet.  Is it just a matter of 
changing the version number with an appropriate Changelog message?  If so, I 
can try starting with one to get the hang of it.  Is there any easy howtos for 
beginners?  Most documentation I've seen is more reference material 
orientated, which I find a little hard to parse to get started.

If you want, I can stick my other files somewhere to download.  I don't know 
if they will be useful.
