@Peter

you are not the real upstream author?

Who is the real project owner? Is there another project homepage then this one
from Debian? From my point of view, we should avoid the creation of differents
"upstreams" tar balls. so it may be nice, if you can work together with the
"real" upstream to get a common tar ball in with the huge diff file is
integrated.
