Great!  This shall be interesting - rebasing my private gbp repo with
your changes at alioth - looking forward to learning new git workflow
;-)

Among the flurry of BTS mail I triggered last Sunday, did you happen to
catch my offers to:

  1. Work on debian/copyright until it's near-perfect (I'm confident the
     work on I did on 5.5.1->5.5.2 delta is correct, but while working
     on that I noticed inconsistencies since older releases, which I
     mostly ignored).  I had done something similar with hostapd/
     wpa_supplicant a few years ago with guidance from Stefan
     Lippers-Hollmann.

  2. Create separate packages per plugin (with extra attention paid to
     Depends, Recommends, Suggests fields), at a minimum create separate
     attr-sql/sqlite/mysql plugin packages (bug #718302), or maximally
     create a separate package for every plugin, or something in
     between.  Ultimately enabling additional plugins that myself and
     several other users have been requesting.

BTW, the BTS seems to have dropped PATCH 01/12, not that this matters
anymore, but I'm curious about what the limitations BTS has on message
size, etc. (it was the giant 'gbp import-orig' patch).
