Hi Norbert,

I guess that you are talking about the version number of the biber
package.  

Currently in Sid we have
	0.9.9+git2012426-3

Which version should I set?  Something like 0.9.9git20120415 or
0.9.9release?

This means uploading .dsc, debian.tar.gz and orig.tar.gz somewhere.

Never done such a thing.  But I guess it all resolves to doing

    debdiff biber-0.9.9-1.deb biber-0.9.9+git20122426-3.deb

and uploading the output somewhere.
