There's an (as of now still empty) repository
moszumanska:/git/pkg-request-tracker/rt-extension-repeatticket.git now.
Commits will be send to pkg-request-tracker-commits at lists.alioth.debian.org ;
that's OK, right?  ( See git.debian.org:/git/pkg-perl/setup-repository .) Plan
is: the rt-extension-repeatticket source package will build the
rt4-extension-repeatticket binary package.

For the record: that's no longer needed; is _has_ been rejected.  (Thanks
Chris Lamb .)
