Yeah, I realized that Carl and Keith are I think both DDs, but as
someone else pointed out to me, they've probably already got their
hands full as it is.  In any rate, building the packaging was mostly
for my own elucidation (I have never used git-buildpackage before),
and to prompt getting it into debian sooner.

What I put together does build almost directly from the master
branch.  I just renamed my master "upstream".  I did create a separate
changelog, mostly because I like having more direct control over what
goes in them, but I'm curious about how changelogs would be crafted
=66rom the git logs.

jamie.
