The basic question is - what shall we do to get the
packages built from new
repositories into Debian/Ubuntu?
I am already looking at those new repositories and there will be packages
soon ...
Is there something we (upstream) can do, to facilitate
the process?
As maintaining the copyright information in debian/copyright is the most
boring task of a maintainer, maybe you can take over this? :-)
Are there some notable .deb-specific patches you'd
like to see merged?
No, I didn't encounter any strange stuff you do yet, so I don't expect any
patches in this regard.
Thus, some time ago I already started to submit patches to some other
repositories for stuff that lintian complains about ...
Should I have used some other channel to communicate
instead of emails I've fetched
from changelogs?
No, from my point of view this is totally fine.
