db.debian.org are easy enough to setup (as has been shown numerous times
now), and I will not engage in that undertaking. If that happens, we
can discuss how packages should be named, and whether the current sbuild
package should be renamed.
Until then, less drama would be welcome.

fvwm does not use cdbs, I think we all know how to do
not?
IMHO, NEWS.Debian should cover things the users should know in order to
successfully operate the package. Knowing who is the maintainer does
not fall into this category. If they cared about changes for the Debian
packaging, they would read up on it in changelog.Debian.gz.

Hi,
did anybody see Warran Turkal (the current maintainer of dbs) lately?
He seems to be MIA WRT his NM-process and packaging work. I tried to
reach him at <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for a while now, but to no avail.
Does anybody know of a another/better address?

This is probably the #1 complaint/problem people seem to have with
