Done. I have added myself to Uploaders.

OK. So now, all Marc has to do is this:
1. Check out the stuff using the svn+ssh://... command which Loic had
first mentioned.
2. Type dch, and do the following:
a) Change "UNRELEASED" to unstable.
b) Add an entry like "Initial Debian release (Closes: #398198)"
And then, do something like:
svn-buildpackage --svn-ignore-new -rfakeroot
Then, cd ../build-area and do lintian vala_0.1.2-1_i386.changes
If it gives no warnings, upload it to someplace like mentors.debian.net.
Is this OK? Will you please do this, Marc?
