+\r
+Yeah, that's fine, but it's a different thing.\r
+\r
+One thing is to host the debian packaging there (I think it should be\r
+packaging/debian, otherwise the .spec should also be in the top\r
+directory, but that's no big deal), and another thing is to bind the\r
+live packaging.\r
+\r
+So basically the notmuch project doesn't own debian/*, which I don't\r
+think makes sense.\r

+\r
+I'm not proposing to so separate that directory to a separate\r
+repository, I'm proposing to have a separate clone that is used for\r
+the *live* packaging, that way the notmuch project can make changes to\r
+debian/*, but only the package maintainer can merge them to the\r
+'debian' specific branch, or repository in order to trigger the live\r
+packaging.\r
+\r
+Cheers.\r
