Hi, I was out of the country for a few days, and while I saw your mail, I wanted to be able to take a closer look.

I think this is not productive. If you have extra time and energy, why don't you fix _existing bug reports_ rather than creating spurious ones? The increase in debhelper compat and Standards-Version is (semi-)automatic and would happen with the next ESS release and hence packaging. Likewise for dh_prep. I don't meant to hurt your feelings here, but besides maybe the patch for the homepage there is really little of added value that makes my life easier. And you could have sent that a simple mail rather than relying on the heavy artillery of the BTS. You know you meant well, but in the grand scheme of things, this doesn't really help me.
