I like that solution; if the user who has downloaded the tarball/CVS 
checkout runs 'make deb', it would go retrieve the debian/ directory and 
then run the process to produce a deb from it. As long as there are 
debian/ directory templates available for each major Asterisk tree 
available (1.0.x and CVS HEAD right now, 1.2.x soon as well), that would 
be a simple solution.

Since I'm the primary committer of changes to the CVS HEAD tree, I could 
easily send a notification to the appropriate party(ies) when changes 
have been committed that may affect the packaging, so that the debian/ 
directory could be updated.
