not so much of a problem for a first upload, can be fixed later.

nope; for release software, the proper version scheme is e.g. 1.4.0-1,
1.4.0-2 etc.; and for svn snapshots it would be
1.4.0+${date}.${svn_revision}-1 (or 1.4.0+${date}-1 for short).

don't worry about the kernel module, i'll take care about that.

license stuff until then, i can prepare an upload to unstable at
saturday morning.
